TLDR
It is shown that automatic, intuitive responses favor cooperative strategies that reciprocate: it is argued that this behavior reflects the overgeneralization of cooperative strategies learned in the context of direct and indirect reciprocity.

The Emergence of "Us and Them" in 80 Lines of Code: Modeling Group Genesis in Homogeneous Populations

TL;DR: This work used agent-based models to explore group genesis in homogeneous populations and found robust group formation with just two basic principles: reciprocity and transitivity.

Engineering Pro-Sociality With Autonomous Agents.

TL;DR: This research will constitute the basis for establishing the foundations for the new field of Pro-social Computing, aiming at understanding, predicting and promoting pro-sociality among humans, through artificial agents and multiagent sys-people.

It's the Thought That Counts: The Role of Intentions in Noisy Repeated Games

TL;DR: The authors examined cooperation in repeated interactions where intended actions are implemented with noise but intentions are perfectly observable, and found that intentions lead to more cooperation compared to control games where intentions are unobserved, allowing subjects to reach similar cooperation levels as in games without noise.

Oxytocin promotes intuitive rather than deliberated cooperation with the in-group.

TL;DR: It is replicated that oxytocin motivates in‐group bounded, parochial cooperation (PC) and effects of oxytocIn on PC appear similar in male and female subjects and appears an intuitive rather than controlled strategy.

Directional learning and the provisioning of public goods

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider an environment where players are involved in a public goods game and must decide repeatedly whether to make an individual contribution or not, and they introduce the concept of k-strong equilibria, which nest both the Nash equilibrium and the Aumann-strong equilibrium as two special cases, and show that the maximal k-strength of equilibrium determines the stationary distribution.

The Genetical Evolution of Social Behaviour. I

TL;DR: A genetical mathematical model is described which allows for interactions between relatives on one another's fitness and a quantity is found which incorporates the maximizing property of Darwinian fitness, named “inclusive fitness”.

The Evolution of Reciprocal Altruism

TL;DR: In this paper, a model is presented to account for the natural selection of what is termed reciprocally altruistic behavior, and the model shows how selection can operate against the cheater (non-reciprocator) in the system.

Five Rules for the Evolution of Cooperation

TL;DR: Five mechanisms for the evolution of cooperation are discussed: kin selection, direct reciprocity, indirect reciprocities, network reciprocation, group selection, and group selection.
