Black-White Differences in Beliefs about the U.S. Restaurant Tipping Norm: Moderated by Socio-Economic Status?

Other Titles

Abstract

A re-analysis of two national telephone surveys found that black-white differences in awareness that it is customary to tip a percentage of the bill declined as socio-economic status increased. However, black-white differences in awareness that is customary to tip 15 to 20 percent in restaurants was unrelated to socio-economic status. The practical as well as theoretical implications of these findings are discussed along with directions for future research.
