Reasonable responsibility attribution and resource allocation in intragroup contexts benefit the evolution of group cooperation. Oxytocin (OT) has been shown to promote prosocial behavior; however, it remains unclear whether OT affects responsibility attribution and hypothetical resource allocation. In the present study, participants were intranasally administered OT or placebo (PLC) before a response task with a partner. The participant could win a certain amount of money depending on the group's performance, which was determined by the faster player. The contribution was manipulated to be similar in the first phase, while the participants could individually contribute more in the second phase. Our results show that both groups attributed more credit to the player who performed better in a trial. Moreover, reward magnitude only enhanced effort-based attribution in the OT group. Although both groups proposed to distribute money based on individual efforts, the PLC group increased their effort-based allocation when they contributed more, regardless of the fact that the money was eventually equally distributed. Our study demonstrates that OT modulates responsibility attribution and hypothetical resource allocation in different manners, suggesting that OT has different effects on a participant's perception of individual contribution and fairness when allocating a reward during social cooperation in a real effort task.

群体内背景下合理的责任归属和资源分配有利于群体合作的演变。催产素 (OT) 已被证明可以促进亲社会行为; 但是,尚不清楚OT是否会影响责任归属和假设的资源分配。在本研究中,参与者在与伴侣进行响应任务之前先鼻内给药OT或安慰剂 (PLC)。参与者可以根据小组的表现赢得一定数量的钱,这是由速度更快的玩家决定的。在第一阶段,贡献被操纵为相似,而在第二阶段,参与者可以单独贡献更多。我们的结果表明,两组都将更多的功劳归功于在试验中表现更好的球员。此外,奖励幅度仅增强了OT组中基于努力的归因。尽管两个小组都建议根据个人的努力分配资金,但PLC小组在捐款更多时增加了基于努力的分配,而不管这些钱最终是平均分配的。我们的研究表明,OT以不同的方式调节责任归属和假设的资源分配,这表明OT在实际努力任务中的社会合作期间分配报酬时,对参与者对个人贡献和公平性的看法具有不同的影响。
