Initially similar, cooperation rates for groups with different intelligence levels diverge, declining in … groups of lower intelligence, and increasing to reach almost full cooperation levels in groups of higher intelligence …

Temptation directly deters cooperation and indirectly harms cooperation by lowering beliefs about the … opponent's cooperativeness. Efficiency indirectly affects cooperation through beliefs, but the magnitude of the effect is …
