The Impact of Strategic Communication in Coopetitive Multiagent Settings
We consider behavior of agents in a long-term multiagent coopetitive setting in which agents vary their cooperative and competitive stances over time. Using the game of Diplomacy as a testbed, we study how successful agents vary their coopetitive behavior, developing a new “style of play” (SoP) characterization of player behavior. We assess five novel SoP hypotheses about successful behavior. We propose two algorithms to automatically compute an …
The relationship between cultural tightness–looseness and Covid-19 cases and deaths
BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic is a global health crisis, yet certain countries have had far more success in limiting COVID-19 cases and deaths. We suggest that collective threats require a tremendous amount of coordination, and that strict adherence to social norms is a key mechanism that enables groups to do so. Here we examine how the strength of social norms-or cultural tightness-looseness-was associated with countries' success in limiting…
Integrating evolutionary game theory and cross-cultural psychology to understand cultural dynamics
In this article, we show that an evolutionary game theoretic (EGT) modeling approach can be fruitfully integrated with research in cross-cultural psychology to provide insight into cultural dynamics. EGT was initially developed to model biological evolution, but has been increasingly used to study the evolution of human behavior. Through "virtual experimentation," EGT models can be used to test the effects of various factors on the trajectories o…
