Preferred term

social exchange theory  

Definition

  • Social exchange theory is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from work in psychology, sociology, anthropology, and economics. For example, a contribution to the theory from economics is that people are rational and want to maximize what they gain from an interaction.
