Object: Using the ultimatum game, our research set up two roles-proposer and responder,
and assigned them randomly. Including thirty-six proposers and forty-three responders, there were
seventy-nine cadets participating in our research. And the allocated amount was 100 yuan. Using the
within-subjects design: 3 (relationship: close/distant/strange)×3 (military rank: high/same/low), the
whole experiment had nine distribution situations. Results: when the participants act as proposers, the
main effect of the relational distance and the military ranks is significant, but the two factors has no
interaction; When the participants act as responders, only the main effect of the relational distance is
remarkable. Conclusions: the fairness of cadets is consistent with the general public; the military rank
is of great significance for cadets, and the proposers will treat their partner in different ways according
to the military rank; when the participants act as the proposers, their behaviors are influenced by the
relationship and the military rank separately; When the participants act as the responders, their behaviors
are only influenced by the relational distance. To sum up, we can infer that the fair behavior of cadets are
relative and situational.
