Can tournaments induce rational play in the centipede game? Exploring dominance vs. strategic uncertainty [PDF]
We compare behavior in a one-shot Centipede game across several payoff structures including nonlinear payoff tournaments. Assuming Nash to be optimal, results suggest nonlinear tournament payoffs based on overall relative rewards are not sufficient to ...

Abstract The American toad (Anaxyrus americanus) is a native insectivorous amphibian common in agricultural fields in eastern North America. Past research on this and related species suggests potential for positive or negative effects on pest populations, depending on the prevalence of intraguild predation.

Variation in a number of taxonomic characters in Cryptops (Cryptops) is discussed. Some, such as the shape of the poison gland calyx and the arrangement of setae on the anterior margin of the forcipular coxosternum, are very reliable.

Artificial Shelters as a Monitoring and Conservation Tool for Terrestrial Breeding Frogs
Artificial concrete and wooden shelters were tested as low‐impact tools for monitoring a cryptic terrestrial‐breeding frog, Austrochaperina robusta, in the Australian Wet Tropics. Frogs overwhelmingly preferred concrete shelters, which provided stronger thermal buffering, supported higher occupancy across seasons, and were the only shelters used for ...

WAS not the insect seen by Miss Rose Haig Thomas (see NATURE, p. 131) a specimen of the Myriapod Scolopendra electrica, or Geophilus electricus, a well-known luminous insect whose light is but rarely seen owing to the insect living underground and in manure heaps? It is, however, the only luminous British species.

Dolomedes schauinslandi Simon 1899 is a large fishing spiderspecies endemic to the Chatham Islands, New Zealand. Today, it only occurs on remote offshore islands, being extinct from most islands of the archipelago. Unusual for a fishing spider, D. schauinslandi has evolved a terrestrial lifestyle, inhabiting forests and feeding predominantly on cave ...

Abstract The diverse infraorder Mygalomorphae includes fossorial and cryptic spiders, such as tarantulas and trapdoor spiders. Their ability to disperse is often highly limited, rendering some mygalomorphs as rare short‐range endemics. These species are vulnerable to landscape changes, often hard to detect, and have poorly understood reproductive ...

Team reasoning-Experimental evidence on cooperation from centipede games.
Previous laboratory studies on the centipede game have found that subjects exhibit surprisingly high levels of cooperation. Across disciplines, it has recently been highlighted that these high levels of cooperation might be explained by "team reasoning",
