โœฆ Synopsis


In a managerial world in which opportunism abounds, the detection of opportunists is an important prerequisite of survival. Recent developments in evolutionary psychology claim to shed light on the cheater detection process: specifically arguing that there is a specialized module in the mind dedicated to this task. These claims are assessed and found wanting in a number of specially designed experiments. Suggestions for future research on this phenomenon are put forward.
