The Results of the Dictator Game among Divorced Children

Divorce and separation of parents are the main causes of mental illness in children. Therefore, it has been decided to examine the degree of fairness and justice of divorced children as one of these variables according to the following models and in the game the Dictator. Economic analysis is usually based on the assumption that people are completely interested in themselves and that they are looking to increase their personal gain. But in some economic experiments, there are evidences and phenomena that can not be interpreted and explained based on self-interest. In this model, people have fair tendencies and are sensitive to unequal results. In this article, at first the children of divorce and their moral characteristics have been introduced, then the game the Dictator and the model of Fahr and Schmidt (1999) has been introduced and analyze. To check the correctness of this model and its results in the case of divorced children, a two-person experiment in the form of a dictator game has been designed. This test was performed for male and female high school students in one of the cities of Iran. The results show that a significant proportion of divorced children choose between self-interest, between fairness and self-interest.
