Norma's attitude is more reckless and greedy, while Arthur's attitude is more fearful.
We can arrive at this answer through the following information:
"Button, Button" is a short story that shows how Norma and Arthur are a couple with serious economic problems, who receive a proposal to earn a lot of money.
This proposal states that if they press a button inside a box they will earn the money, but will cause the death of someone they don't know.
Although they both want the money, Arthur is fearful and afraid of causing someone's death. He believes it's best not to get involved with it and never push the button.
Norma is more inconsequential and believes she has no problem killing someone she doesn't know. For this reason, she presses the button and ends up causing the death of her husband.
The different attitudes of the two characters are established to create a discussion between readers, who can support Norm or Arthur, according to their convictions.
