Boundedly Rational and Emotional Agents Cooperation, Trust and Rumor

  • Chapter
Trust and Deception in Virtual Societies

Abstract

Our work focuses on understanding the relationship among humans, agents, tasks, and the social situations in which they are engaged. From this, we seek to establish the elemental basis of social behavior and group phenomena, and make predictions about them. Our guide for this effort is the Model Social Agent matrix.
