📢Out now: Joshua B. Plotkin, AnzhiSheng_1002, Qi Su and Long Wang develop a mathematical framework to study how the structure of higher-order interactions influences cooperative behavior. nature.com/articles/s4358…

How do behaviors spread when social networks change over time?

New work led by Qi Su and Alex McAvoy makes some analytical progress on this.

Especially interesting dynamics arise when the dense and sparse regions of a network switch, over time.

Delighted to see this paper (with Ben Allen and Joshua B. Plotkin) published.

Recent studies led by Penn Arts & Sciences researchers show that changing social strategies between settings—for example, cooperating at home but not at work—can in fact lead to more cooperative behavior in a society. penntoday.upenn.edu/news/context-d…

Is there any terminology for this psychology ---one is willing to help others, but only after dealing with his own need? Sounds like 'charity begins at home'?
