Natural selection and social preferences

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2006
A large number of individuals are randomly matched into groups, where each group plays a finite symmetric game. Individuals breed true. The expected number of surviving offspring depends on own material payoff, but may also, due to cooperative breeding and/or reproductive competition, depend on the material payoffs to other group members.

Selectivity in hierarchical social systems

Journal of Economic Theory, 2010
We consider a selection process and a hierarchical institution in a dynamic model as in Harrington (1998) [4], where agents are “climbing the pyramid” in a rank-order contest based on the “up or out” policy. Agents are matched in pairs to compete, and each pair faces a particular environment.
