Project description
Taking a deeper look at behavioural reactions to power and autonomy
The dynamics of power relations are crucial in families and in business, as well as within economic and political institutions. This makes all decisions concerning power and autonomy very important for people. But are choices made based on expected consequences and external circumstances? Or are they based on the value individuals assign to power or autonomy? To find the answer, the EU-funded CONTROL project will investigate the reasons behind differences in attitudes towards autonomy and power. It will also study the consequences. A novel revealed preference approach will allow researchers to separately measure the intrinsic value of power and the intrinsic value of autonomy.
