No third-party punishment in chimpanzees.
Punishment can help maintain cooperation by deterring free-riding and cheating. Of particular importance in large-scale human societies is third-party punishment in which individuals punish a transgressor or norm violator even when they themselves are not affected. Nonhuman primates and other animals aggress against conspecifics with some regularity, but it is unclear whether this is ever aimed...
متن کاملCostly third-party punishment in young children.
Human adults engage in costly third-party punishment of unfair behavior, but the developmental origins of this behavior are unknown.

Research has found that third-party punishment is subject to intergroup bias, whereby people punish members of the out-group more severely than the in-group.

We hypothesize that egalitarian distribution norms and cooperation norms apply in our experiments, and that third parties, whose economic payoff is unaffected by the norm violation, may be willing to enforce these norms although the enforcement is costly for them. Almost two-thirds of the t...
