Respondents from Turkey and the United States solved micro- and macro-justice dilemmas requiring them to allocate scholarships and governance board memberships. Recipients were either groups or individuals who were members of respondents’in-groups or out-groups. Turkish respondents showed a stronger preference than U.S. respondents for macro deservingness only when recipients were from their in-groups and, in general, preferred in-group over out-group recipients. Both U.S. and Turkish respondents used macro principles more with group versus individual recipients.
