Simple play in the Prisoner's Dilemma

Article Abstract:

An intuitive model was proposed which illustrate the manner in which people simplify objective situations. The model shows that an individual tries to update the scalar that is associated with a chosen strategy by moving it in the direction of the received payoff. Such behavior may result in a situation in which a chosen strategy generates the highest minimum payoff. Such strategy could be very costly with regards to expected payoff maximization.
