Abstract: Abstract With the objective of studying the influence of technology on digital natives’ behaviour in professional context focusing on trust and control dynamics, this paper presents the design of an experiment for providing first laboratory data on this topic. After the introduction of the theoretical background for both digital natives and trust, we present the experiment designed by formalizing a one-shot modified trust game in which both trust and control dynamics between two players can be observed. The data gathered through the preliminary experiment sections are analysed in order to answer basic research questions concerning the investigation of potential differences in trust and control dynamics in homogeneous (all composed by digital natives or digital immigrants) and heterogeneous groups (composed by one digital native and one digital immigrants).
