What is the role of negative altruism in Atc?
In experimental economics, behavioral psychologists use games to test simulated issues of social interactions in the workplace, such as altruism and reciprocity. I hope to try these games on controllers at some future time. It is difficult to quantify behavior in a social context. Experimental economics help us understand the ecology of working with each other and the psychoeconomic impact of the job upon individual preferences. In the context of Atc, altruistic behaviors are mainly cooperation, coworker support, free-riding or skating, overconfidence and risk perception; behaviors that atcos manifest as expressions of concern to varying degrees for the welfare of others.

In the last post, I noted that negative altruism in Atc acts as a motivational bias towards an atco's perception of well-being. How so? Well, just as how we have a literal market where we can go to get more food items, we also have a market at the workplace where we can increase or decrease our well-being. The vendors in this symbolic market are our fellow atcos that we work with. Senior atcos are the most powerful vendors. Why is this so?
