Practice question · Select all that apply
Select every statement that is TRUE about cooperation and conflict.
Hints
- Two options misstate stability - one about all-Hawk, one about all-Dove.
- All-Hawk pays heavy injury costs, and all-Dove is invaded by a Hawk.
Show the answer
- A. Once established, a stable strategy leaves no opening for a scarce newcomer.
- D. Two cooperators take more from the game than any other pairing.
- E. A strategy can punish defection and still resume cooperating the moment the other side does.
Why
Best-collective-cooperation, Tit-for-Tat's traits, and the ESS definition are all true. An all-Hawk population suffers heavy injury costs (not injury-free), and a pure Dove population is invaded by Hawks - so those two are false.
