abstract = {{People accept an unequal distribution of resources if they judge that the decision-making process was fair. In this study, 3- and 5-year-old children played an allocation game with two puppets. The puppets decided against a fair distribution in all conditions, but they allowed children to have various degrees of participation in the decision-making process. Children of both ages protested less when they were first asked to agree with the puppets{\textquoteright} decision compared with when there was no agreement. When ignored, the younger children protested less than the older children{\textemdash}perhaps because they did not expect to have a say in the process{\textemdash}whereas they protested more when they were given an opportunity to voice their opinion{\textemdash}perhaps because their stated opinion was ignored. These results suggest that during the preschool years, children begin to expect to be asked for their opinion in a decision, and they accept disadvantageous decisions if they feel that they have had a voice in the decision-making process.}},
