Tit for tat - EvoWiki (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09) |
 | | In such a situation, a tit for tat strategy simply starts out being cooperative, and thereafter reciprocates altruistically if the other player has been altruistic, and behaves selfishly if the other has behaved selfishly. |
 | | Tit for tat can be a remarkably successul strategy, because it experiences the benefits of mutual cooperation, yet does not get repeatedly exploited by selfish partners. |
 | | For a brief discussion of the Prisoner's Dilemma, see the paragraph "reciprocal altruism" in the article on altruism. |
