Now, a study suggests that cultural differences shape when children develop a sense of fairness, with significant differences across countries. Children from seven countries — the United States, Canada, Mexico, Peru, India, Senegal and Uganda — began rejecting unfair deals at different ages between 4 and 15 years old, when tested by researchers. Although children in all of these societies grew to reject deals that put them at a disadvantage, children in three of the countries also grew to reject deals that gave them an advantage. Previous studies with adults have shown that ideas of fairness differ across human societies, says Katherine McAuliffe, a psychologist at Boston College in Massachusetts. “That difference has to start somewhere,” says McAuliffe, an author of the study, published on November 18 in Nature. But the analysis does not draw final conclusions about the specific cultural causes of this difference. “It’s a really impressive, very clean experiment that leaves a lot to think about,” says Philippe Rochat, a developmental psychologist at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia. 1.

The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, or OECD, which runs the tests in math, reading and science, is considering adding another test which would look at how well pupils can deal with the modern world, with an awareness of different cultures and beliefs. The OECD’s education director Andreas Schleicher explains why there is such a need to measure young people’s competence in a world where globalization is a powerful economic, political and cultural force. Education leaders around the world are increasingly talking about the need to teach “global competences” as a way of addressing the challenges of globalization. It was one of the key topics at this month’s meeting of education ministers from the G7 group of leading industrial countries, held in Japan. 3.
