The current study investigated whether predicting others’ emotions affects 4-year-olds’ sharing behavior during dictator games. In Experiment 1, participants were asked to allocate 10 stickers between themselves and a monkey puppet shown in a photo. Children in the experimental condition, but not those in the control condition, were told that the monkey would draw a picture of how he felt about the amount of stickers he received. Children in the experimental condition allocated significantly more stickers to the recipient than did those in the control condition, suggesting that an understanding of others’ emotions promoted altruistic distribution. In Experiment 2, we examined whether the presence of the recipient in the setting would affect children’s distribution of resources. The procedure was identical to that of Experiment 1 except that participants were asked to give stickers to a monkey puppet in a face-to-face setting. In Experiment 2, children in both conditions donated stickers about equally between themselves and the monkey puppet, which resembled results of the experimental condition from Experiment 1. These results suggest that considering others’ emotions as well as an awareness of another’s presence promotes children’s fair distribution.
