An Experiment

Participants asked to play boggle for money and told they will be paid between $3 and $10

After few games they are given $3

If they asked directly for more they received $10

If just complained, they didn’t receive any more money

Men and Women were equally likely to complain

Men were 9 TIMES more Likely to ask for more money
