Vietnam |
Three ethnic groups: in-group majority (Vietnamese) behavior towards high-status outgroup (rich Chinese) and low-status outgroup (poor Khmer) |
10k dong (about USD .53) |
Khmer exhibits the strongest outgroup bias against Vietnamese and Chinese (2000 to 3000). Vietnamese give more to their own group (range from 3000 to 4000) than Chinese (range from 2000 to 3000). The Chinese give more to their own group (range from 3000 to 4000) than to Vietnamese (range from 3000 to 4000). However, one unusual cross-group exception is that the Vietnamese and the Chinese give more to Khmer than their own group members. |
