ABSTRACT

This article examines the tipping preferences of Bahamians as compared to Namasivayam and Upneja’s (2007) study of Americans. The statistical procedure applied was the between-subjects experiment which was the same methodology used in the original study. One hundred and eighty-two individuals were randomly assigned to one of four groups. One of four written scenarios was randomly selected and respondents provide their opinions of fairness, distributive justice, and perceptions of control. The results indicate that unlike the American sample where all three variables were found to be significant, only the fairness variable was significant for the Bahamian sample. Implications of these results will be discussed and explored.
