This is the code repository for the following paper:
Macanovic, A., Tsvetkova, M., Przepiorka, W., and Buskens, V. 2023. Signals of Belonging:
Emergence of Signalling Norms as Facilitators of Trust and Parochial Cooperation.
*Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B.* (forthcoming), doi: 10.1098/rstb.2023.
The repository includes NetLogo code of simulations used reported on in the main and supplementary results.
This repository includes the following files:
- RSTB_2023_0029_ABM_main.nlogo : main simulations, with results both in main text and main results in the supplement (sections S4.2-S4.5)
- RSTB_2023_0029_ABM_nosig.nlogo : simulations without the possibility of signalling norm evolution (results in section S4.1)
- RSTB_2023_0029_ABM_signalling_start.nlogo : simulations initiated in a signalling equilibrium/full signalling state (results in Section S4.6)
- RSTB_2023_0029_ABM_four_truster_types.nlogo : simulations with a possibility of discrimination against signalling outgroup/trusting otherwise
(see sections S2.2. and S4.7)
- RSTB_2023_0029_ABM_noise.nlogo : simulations with noise in trustee capability of recognizing the truster identity correctly (see sections S2.3 and S4.8)
- RSTB_2023_0029_ABM_robchecks.nlogo : robustness checks (results in Section S4.9)
See the "Info" tab upon opening the files in NetLogo for more information about each parameter.
