Abstract: Two experiments examined the effects of game structure and S's behavior on attitudes to opponents (O). Highly cooperative Ss, involved in either the PD, the power game, or the Chicken game, against a conditionally cooperative O, rated powerful Os as having more suspicious motives and less ability as compared to Os in the other games. Os in the Chicken game were rated least attractive. In the second study, a relationship was found between weak Ss' level of exploitation and the rating of the powerful Os' ability.
