Abstract

Religion and culture are both seen to be important elements in group classification. Many previous research showed that trust between individuals decreases transaction costs, encourages collaboration, and is thus vital for economic and social success. and this is known as within-group bias. However, there has yet to be a study that compares the effects of both. This study evaluates the impact of high religiosity and strong cultural identification on an individual’s perception of trustworthiness in China by combining an implicit attitude test (IAT) with a trust game with a non-student sample. And the findings are intended to show that religion has a higher influence on ingroup bias-related trust behaviors than culture, because the likelihood of using certain social categories increases with the number of times a person uses them.
