Redistribution promotes cooperation in spatial public goods games under aspiration dynamics

TL;DR: It is found that the promotion of redistribution for cooperation is more evident in heterogeneous networks, especially when hub nodes have larger aspirations, and the effect of redistribution on cooperative promotion under different aspiration distributions varies with the proportion of redistribution.

The entangled nature of interdependence. Bistability, irreproducibility and uncertainty

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that social scientists have come to believe they understand interdependence when they do not, and they use a quantum-like model of interdependent individuals to show that redundant members impede team inter-dependence and performance.

Kinship underlies costly cooperation in Mosuo villages.

TL;DR: The results show how a real-world form of cooperation was driven by kinship, and the importance of inclusive fitness in understanding human social behaviour.

People prefer coordinated punishment in cooperative interactions.

TL;DR: Over two experiments and a replication, Molleman and colleagues show that, in cooperative interactions, people prefer to sanction their free-riding peers jointly with others rather than individually, providing strong empirical support for theories that explain cooperation based on coordinated punishment.

Increasing altruistic and cooperative behaviour with simple moral nudges

TL;DR: The authors used economic games to demonstrate that asking subjects to self-report "what they think is the morally right thing to do" does not only increase pro-sociality in the choice immediately after, but also in subsequent choices, and even when the social context changes.

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
