Abstract

Actitudes y comportamiento de confianza y reciprocidad determinan la posibilidad de construcción de capital social. Así, es necesario conocer las percepciones y comportamientos con relación a la confianza, de los agentes involucrados de tal proceso de construcción, en particular para aquellos que pueden tener el liderazgo. Para ello, utilizando las herramientas y técnicas de campo dispuestas por la economía experimental, se realizó un ejercicio de campo en el proyecto Lasallista denominado ¿Utopía¿, donde los resultados senalan que las elecciones están marcadas por la creencia de la elección que tomará la contraparte, evidenciando el efecto de reciprocidad presente en la toma de decisiones de interacción estratégica.******Attitudes and behavior of trust and reciprocity determine the possibility of building social capital. Thus, it is necessary to understand the perceptions and behaviors in relation to the trust, of the agents involved in such a construction process, particularly for those who can take the lead. To do this, using the tools and techniques arranged by field of experimental economics, we conducted a field exercise in the Lasallian project called "Utopia", where results indicate that the elections are marked by the belief that the election will take the counterpart, showing the effect of reciprocity present in the decision-making of strategic interaction.
