TL;DR: The authors found that those high in Honesty-Humility were more likely to cooperate in the prisoner's dilemma, so long as this was sensible in any way, while those low in Humility tended to defect, especially when this behavior was very tempting but not risky.

TL;DR: In this paper, a Bourdieudian approach to national diplomacy in the EU is developed to explore how British and Danish officials handle their opt-outs, and it is demonstrated that the two opt-out champions employ various sophisticated strategies to overcome the dilemma between autonomy and influence.
Abstract: How are controversial national opt-outs managed and perceived in the EU? This article argues that the United Kingdom and Denmark compensate diplomatically for the exclusionary effects of their exemptions. A Bourdieudian approach to national diplomacy in the EU is developed to explore how British and Danish officials handle their opt-outs. By drawing on extensive interview data, it is demonstrated that the two opt-out champions employ various sophisticated strategies to overcome the dilemma between autonomy and influence. Some diplomatic strategies reduce marginalization while others enhance it. National opt-outs are ambiguous attempts at avoiding further European integration.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare female inmates and students in a simultaneous and a sequential Prisoner's Dilemma, and find that the cooperation rate among inmates exceeds the rate of cooperating students.
Abstract: We report insights into the behavior of prisoners in dilemma situations that so famously carry their name. We compare female inmates and students in a simultaneous and a sequential Prisoner's Dilemma. In the simultaneous Prisoner's Dilemma, the cooperation rate among inmates exceeds the rate of cooperating students. Relative to the simultaneous dilemma, cooperation among first-movers in the sequential Prisoner's Dilemma increases for students, but not for inmates. Students and inmates behave identically as second movers. Hence, we find a similar and significant fraction of inmates and students to hold social preferences.
