Information cascades and the collapse of cooperation by Yang, Guoli, Csikász-Nagy, Attila, Waites, William, Xiao, Gaoxi, Cavaliere, Matteo

“…We show that promiscuous decisions (high sensitivity, low specificity) are advantageous for cooperation when the strength of competition is weak; however, if competition is strong then the best decisions for cooperation are risk-adverse (low sensitivity, high specificity). …”
