From: Population Structure Promotes the Evolution of Intuitive Cooperation and Inhibits Deliberation

Similar evolutionary dynamics are observed across varying network structures. (A) Critical value of probability of repeated game p at which S i = 0.5 and, (B) Maximum value of cost threshold of deliberation T over all values of p, across average network degree k for Cycle, Watts-Strogatz Small-World, Barabási-Albert Scale-Free, and Erdős-Rényi random networks. Results obtained for cycles are robust to networks with heterogeneous degree suggesting that the effect of structure on the coevolution of cooperation and cognition is mainly driven by the sparsity of connections within the network.
