A Social Dilemma Videogame


Abstract This article describes a videogame to study the effects of social identity upon the results of social dilemmas. The game will do this by setting up the players in a team game. A team game represents a specific type of social dilemma in which collective action problems occur simultaneously at several levels of an hierarchical structure. We describe the game theoretical analysis of the proposed game and the prediction of its possible outcomes according to rational choice theory.
