Abstract / Description
According to the intuitive retributivism hypothesis, individuals favor retributivist (getting
even) over consequentialist (prevention of norm transgressions) motives when asked
to rate the appropriateness of punishment responses representing these motives. This
hypothesis was hardly tested in children; restorative motives (norm clarification,
settlement) and potentially influencing variables were hardly considered. We had 170
elementary school children (M = 9.26, SD = 1.01) rate the appropriateness of six
punishment responses by themselves and teachers for two types of norm
transgression and their justice sensitivity. Children rated punishment responses
thought to represent restorative motives as most appropriate, followed by special
preventive and other retributive motives, revenge, general preventive motives, and
doing nothing across perspectives. Transgression type did not influence
appropriateness ratings. Justice sensitivity was related to a stronger tendency to
punish. Findings favor intuitive pacifism over intuitive retributivism, indicate children’s
preference for target-specific, communicative punishment, and show only small
influences by other variables.
