The study involved 64 people (n=64), divided into two groups: supervisor and subordinates. To study the features of making moral decisions, participants were presented with two game tasks. The results obtained lead to the conclusion that people who behave when solving moral problems are more rational, selfish and risky, have less motivation for approval, greater pessimism and a tendency to compete as the leading mode of behavior in conflict.
