interaction impacts cooperation within groups and surplus distribution. We developed and tested experimentally a Surplus … Allocation Game where cooperation of four agents is needed to produce surplus, but only two have the power to allocate it among … distributors and receivers. While behavior at the group level is diverse for surplus allocation and amount of cooperation …

How does group cooperation vary with the group' size and structure? For an arbitrary … distribution of discount factors, we characterize the maximal average co-operation (MAC) likelihood of this game. The MAC …

Existing research supports two opposing mechanisms through which positive mood might affect cooperation. Some studies … have suggested that positive mood produces more altruistic, open and helpful behavior, fostering cooperation. However … reduced use of information, hampering cooperation.
