Zusammenfassung:The effect of information relevance and information availability on perceptual differences between Chinese and American nationals was investigated. Subjects participated in pairs as decision makers in a complex experimental environment. Participants' perceptions of success, failure, and competence levels for their own team (under conditions where judgments could be based on varying levels of relevant information) and for a supposed opposing team (under conditions where perceptions had to be inferred in the absence of information) were obtained. Potential applications of the findings for military decision making and for a policy of military deterrence are considered. (Author) Prepared in cooperation with Smith Richardson Foundation.
