Michigan State University The mediating effect of face-to-face vs. non-face-toface interaction on sex differences in bargaining was examined. Male and female subjects were paired with either a sameor different-sexed person. Dyad members worked on a pretask for different periods of time and then bargained either face-to-face or apart over monetary rewards. As predicted, mixed-sex dyads reached agreement more quickly when they bargained face-to-face than when apart, while social context did not affect bargaining behavior in same-sex dyads.
