What is prisoners dilemma? and how it works?
Explain in detail
Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- How does the concept of the Prisoner's Dilemma illustrate the challenges of cooperation and rational decision-making in economic scenarios?Consider a game with two players who cannot communicate, and in which each player is asked a question. The players can answer the question honestly or lie. If both answer honestly, each receives $100. If one player answers honestly and the other lies, the liar receives $500 and the honest player gets nothing. If both lie, then each receives $50. a) Describe the strategies and payoffs of this game b) Construct the payoff matrix c) Compare this game to the prisoners' dilemma. Are the two games similar or different? Briefly explain your answer.Construct the prisoners dillema game and determine Nash equilibrium
- The study of how people make decisions in situations where attaining their goals depends on their interactions with others is called A. game theory. B. Nash equilibrium. C. the prisoners' dilemma. D. dominant strategy equilibrium.Suppose two players play the prisoners' dilemma game a finite number of times, both players are rational, and the game is played with complete information, is a tit-for-tat strategy optimal in this case? Explain using your own words.Mary and Raj are the only two growers who provide organically grown corn to a local grocery store. Table below represents the choices available to Mary and Raj and the payoffs associated with each outcome. What is the best choice for Raj if he is sure that Mary will cooperate? If Mary thinks Raj will cheat, what should Mary do and why? What is the prisoner’s dilemma result? (A = Work independently; B = Cooperate and Raise prices. Each results entry lists Raj earnings first, and Mary's earnings second.) Mary A B Raj A ($100, $100) ($200, $0) B ($0, $200) ($150, $150)
- What are the possible causes of Prisoner’s Dilemma? Please list at least three mechanisms to overcome this dilemma.In the following payoff matrix, is there a prisoners dilemma? If so, what is it?Consider a game where each player picks a number from 0 to 60. The guess that is closest to half of the average of the chosen numbers wins a prize. If several people are equally close, then they share the prize. The game theory implies that (A) all players have dominant strategies to choose 0 (B) all players have dominant strategies to choose 30 (C) there is a Nash equilibrium where all players pick 0 (D) there is a Nash equilibrium where all players pick positive numbers Behavioral data in such games suggests that (A) most subjects choose 0; (B) most subjects choose 30;(C) common answers include 30, 15, 7.5, and 0; (D) most subjects use randomization.
