Gächter, Simon; Lee, Kyeongtae; Sefton, Martin - 2020

We examine the effect of payoff variations on cooperation in one-shot prisoner's dilemma games. We focus on three … impact on cooperation. 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 …
