It was proposed that the emphasis of previous investigations of selfdisclosure reciprocity on descriptive reciprocation, the intimacy of the facts an individual reveals about himor herself, stems largely from the fact that these investigations have structured the circumstances for disclosure in terms of the exchange of information. If the circumstances were changed to a conversation or if parti...

This experiment shows that Mathew Rabin’s (1993) fairness equilibrium is more descriptive than the relevant null hypothesis, that people’s generosity levels are innate. Participants treated others as they expected others to treat them. Prospective reciprocation creates path dependency in organizations’ cooperation levels. Organization member’s expectations of others’ willingness to cooperate ma...

Two trees are used sequentially to calculate an approxi-mation to lIA, where 1 IA < 2. These trees calculate the logarithm andexponential, and the division (reciprocation) process can be described by1/A= eAd. For bit skip accuracy of six to 10, this logarithmic-exponential method uses significantly less hardware with respect to thescheme in [3], and the delays may be...

The authors draw on theories of social exchange and prosocial behavior to explain how employee perceptions of procedural justice and individual differences in reciprocation wariness, empathic concern, and perspective taking function jointly as determinants of organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) role definitions and behavior. As hypothesized, empirical findings from a field study show both...

The effects of periodic reversal flow direction a heat transfer fluid (HTF) on the rate in latent thermal energy storage system (LTESS) are numerically investigated for consecutive melting and freezing cycles phase change material (PCM). Numerical results validated with experimental measurements. Parametric studies performed, where different parameters that affect performance LTESS varied indep...

Reciprocation of monetary gifts is well-understood in economics. In contrast, there is little research on reciprocal behavior following immaterial gifts like compliments. We narrow this gap and investigate how employees reciprocate after receiving immaterial gifts and material gifts over time. We purchase (1) ice cream from fast food restaurants, and (2) durum doner, a common lunch snack, from ...
