Inequality Aversion in a Variety of Games – An Indirect Evolutionary Analysis
通过间接演化方法，研究在多种博弈环境中，主观动机（如不平等厌恶）如何影响长期演化成功，发现内在动机与物质成功之间可能出现持续分歧。
The indirect evolutionary approach integrates forward-looking evaluation of opportunities and adaptation in the light of the past. Subjective motivation determines behaviour, but long-run evolutionary success of motivational types depends on objective factors only. This can justify intrinsic aversion to inequality in reward allocation games. Whereas earlier analysis was restricted to specific games, this article considers a more complex environment comprising different games which - studied in isolation - yield opposite implications. Persistent divergence between intrinsic motivation and true material success is possible depending on the definition of inequality aversion as well as on agents' ability to discriminate between games.
