Inhibitory control and inequity aversion

This dataset contains the anonymized data and R scripts associated with a study examining the role of theory of mind, motor inhibitory control, and attentional inhibitory control in predicting children’s inequity aversion. The study included Argentine children aged 5 to 12 years who completed the Inequity Game, along with age-appropriate assessments of theory of mind and inhibitory control. Children’s decisions in each trial were coded as acceptance or rejection of equitable, disadvantageous inequitable, or advantageous inequitable offers.

The dataset includes trial-level responses from the Inequity Game, demographic variables, theory of mind scores, motor inhibitory control scores, attentional inhibitory control scores, offer type, condition, trial number, and order of offer presentation. The accompanying R scripts reproduce the generalized linear mixed models reported in the manuscript, including models for disadvantageous and advantageous inequity aversion.

All data are anonymized and do not contain personally identifiable information.
