TY - CONF ID - 1778545 AU - Kundtová Klocová, Eva - Lang, Martin - Maňo, Peter - Kundt, Radek - Xygalatas, Dimitrios PY - 2021 TI - Effects of sorcery beliefs on parochial prosociality in Mauritius KW - sorcery KW - magic KW - ancestor worship KW - parochial prosociality KW - economic games UR - https://culturalevolutionsociety.org/story/Conferences N2 - While previous studies testing evolutionary models of religious morality found that beliefs in moralizing and punitive gods decrease local favoritism and increase resource-sharing with distant co-religionists, the effects of beliefs related to local supernatural agents have not been extensively explored. Nam (the spirit of a deceased person) beliefs are quite ambiguous because the spirit may be linked to ancestor worship but also to the practice of sorcery (illegal in Mauritius). Importantly, previous studies suggested that sorcery beliefs and practices can have a damaging impact on social bonds and trust, but such research is often limited by social stigma associated with sorcery and relevant comparison with other local deities is often missing. We show that endorsing the sorcery mode of belief in nam together with performing rituals toward nam was associated with larger probability of breaking the game rules for selfish outcomes in the Random Allocation Game (compared to the ancestor worship mode).
