Intensive studies on indirect reciprocity have explored rational assessment rules for maintaining cooperation and … hybrid-assessment scheme in which players use both assessment systems and by using evolutionary game theory. We calculated … replicator equations using the expected payoffs of three strategies: unconditional cooperation, unconditional defection, and …

Case studies of cartels and recent theory suggest that repeated communication is key for stable cooperation in … understood. We study cooperation under different monitoring and communication structures in the laboratory. Under all monitoring … monitoring, where actions can only be observed with noise, cooperation is stable only when subjects can communicate before every …

Altruists and envious people who meet in contests are symbionts. They do better than a population of narrowly rational individuals. If there are only altruists and envious individuals, a particular mixture of altruists and envious individuals is evolutionarily stable.

This paper reports an experiment which compares behaviour in two punishment regimes: (i) a standard public goods game with punishment in which subjects are given the opportunity to punish other group members (democratic punishment regime) and (ii) a public goods game environment where all group...

This paper studies the interaction of beliefs, payoff parameters, and the cooperation rate in the infinitely repeated … prisoner's dilemma. We show formally that a player's belief about the probability of cooperation by their opponent moderates … the effect of changes in the payoff parameters on cooperation. If beliefs are high, increasing the gain from unilateral …

A fundamental question in social sciences is how trust emerges. We provide an answer which relies on the formation of social and economic relationships. We argue that behind trust lies the fact that individuals invest in connections taking into account the potential externalities networks...
