This paper surveys the evolutionary game theoretic literature on reciprocity in human interactions, dealing both with long-term relationships and with sporadic interactions. Four basic themes, repetition, commitment, assortation, and parochialism, appear repeatedly throughout the literature. Repetition can give rise to the evolution of behavior that exhibits reciprocity-like features but a vast...

The purpose of this paper is to give a reciprocity between Uq(h) and Hn,r, the Hecke algebra of (Z/rZ) ≀ Sn introduced by Ariki and Koike [1]. The Schur-Weyl reciprocity was originally discovered for GL(m) and Sn [17, p.130]. This is the first example of dual pairs and has been generalized to various pairs of groups and algebras. Jimbo [10] proved a q-analogue of the original reciprocity, namel...

BACKGROUND The persistent lack of evidence on causal mechanisms between social capital and health threatens the credibility of the social capital-health association. The present study aims to address this ongoing problem by investigating whether health behaviours (i.e. smoking, alcohol consumption, and physical activity) mediate the prospective relation between workplace reciprocity and future ...

Objective: The ways people use for social rank (dominance vs prestige) could explain difference attitude toward five moral foundations. The aim of this study was to investigate the differential relationship between prestige, dominance and moral foundations. Methods: This study conducted with 150 participants who respond to the moral foundation questionnaire and dominance-prestige scale. Multip...

Indirect reciprocity is a key mechanism for the evolution of human cooperation. Our behaviour towards other people depends not only on what they have done to us but also on what they have done to others. Indirect reciprocity works through reputation. The standard model of indirect reciprocity offers a binary choice: people can either cooperate or defect. Cooperation implies a cost for the donor...

This work studies how goal-directed agents can form profitable coalitions. A coalition is formed when some agents agree to cooperate for the achievement of a shared goal or to exchange with each other the achievement of their own goals. We define two criteria of admissibility that establish which coalitions can be formed under the assumption that agents are self-interested. The first admissibil...

Few theories on suicide have been grounded in the norm of reciprocity. There is literature on suicide, however, describing motivations such as retaliation and retreat which can be interpreted as modes of adaptation to the norm of reciprocity. We propose a reciprocity-based theory to explain suicides associated with relationship problems. Employing a content analysis of suicide notes, we tested ...

Reciprocity has been considered as one of the most important constructs in knowledge sharing literature. However, prior studies have defined and measured this construct in different ways, leading to mixed research findings about its role. To solve the controversy, based on prior reciprocity literature, we differentiate three relevant concepts namely norm of reciprocity, reciprocal benefits, and...
