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. _________________________________________________________________ Stephen Guerin CEO, Founder https://simtable.com stephen.gue...@simtable.com stephengue...@fas.harvard.edu Harvard Visualization Research and Teaching Lab <https://hwpi.harvard.edu/eps-visualization-research-laboratory/home> mobile: (505)577-5828 On Sat, Dec 28, 2024 at 9:45 PM Sarbajit Roy <sroy...@gmail.com> wrote: > Where can I read > *more, O., Guerin, S., Barr, S., Charles, E., & Thomspon, N.
