Investors are keen to buy and use NFT pictures as social media avatars and participate in online communities around NFT collections. However, information manipulation in the NFT market has led to investors significant losses. Our work explored a way to correspond social media accounts with Ethereum addresses and studied the m…
Individualistic powerfulness and collectivistic powerlessness corrupts
Evidence from individualistic cultures suggests that power corrupts. Using a goals-based perspective, here we argue that power and culture jointly predict corrupt attitudes and behavior. Four studies ( N = 447) and one meta-analysis were conducted to test these hypotheses. Study 1 investigated the joint effects of power and individuals' cultural orientations on corruption proclivity. Studies 2 and 3 assessed if power and cultural orientations aff…
