[image: *]AbstractThere are three prominent solutions to the Darwinian
problem of altruism, kin selection, reciprocal altruism, and trait group
selection. Only one, reciprocal altruism, most commonly implemented in game
theory as a TIT FOR TAT strategy, is not based on the principle of
conditional association. On the contrary, TIT FOR TAT implements
conditional altruism in the context of unconditionally determined
associates. Simulations based on Axelrod's famous tournament have led many
to conclude that conditional altruism among unconditional partners lies at
the core of much human and animal social behavior. But the results that
have been used to support this conclusion are largely artifacts of the
structure of the Axelrod tournament, which explicitly disallowed
conditional association as a strategy. In this study, we modify the rules
of the tournament to permit competition between conditional associates and
conditional altruists. We provide evidence that when unconditional altruism
is paired with conditional association, a strategy we called MOTH, it can
outcompete TIT FOR TAT under a wide range of conditions.
