Powering up with indirect reciprocity in a large-scale field experiment
TL;DR: It is shown how indirect reciprocity can be harnessed to increase cooperation in a relevant, real-world public goods game and provided evidence that reputational concerns are driving the observability effect.

Altruistic Punishment in Humans
Ernst Fehr,Simon Gaechter +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown experimentally that the altruistic punishment of defectors is a key motive for the explanation of cooperation, and that future study of the evolution of human cooperation should include a strong focus on explaining altruistic punished.

Noa Stanietsky,Hrvoje Šimić,Jurica Arapović,Amir Toporik,Ofer Levy,Amit Novik,Zurit Levine,Meirav Beiman,Liat Dassa,Hagit Achdout,Noam Stern-Ginossar,Pinhas Tsukerman,Stipan Jonjić,Ofer Mandelboim +13 more
TL;DR: It is shown that TIGIT is expressed by all human NK cells, that it binds PVR and PVRL2 but not PVRL3 and that it inhibits NK cytotoxicity directly through its ITIM, providing an “alternative self” mechanism for MHC class I inhibition.

Evolution of indirect reciprocity by image scoring
TL;DR: It is proposed that the emergence of indirect reciprocity was a decisive step for the evolution of human societies and the probability of knowing the ‘image’ of the recipient must exceed the cost-to-benefit ratio of the altruistic act.
