| dc.description.abstract | Cooperation and trust have been well studied themes in the scientific world. How they relate is however unclear. This research investigates the effect that trust has on a cooperative population with the means of an evolutionary algorithm. This is done by comparing a cooperative model without trust to one with trust. The results of the models are compared at four things: the amount of cooperation, the conditions at which cooperation will occur, the stability of cooperation and the amount of diversity in a population. Results show how cooperation can explain only a small amount of diversity in a population, that trust explains unstable cooperation levels and that trust could explain different times of `peace' and `war'. | en_US |
