Paper w/ R.Chvaja&@bgpurzycki.bsky.social on the role of costly signals in conflict is out.

In PGG experimental setup, only extreme cooperators chose to use highly costly signals. But those that did created ultra-cooperative groups that harmed other groups through sacrifice.

The CREDO project aims to devise and test a computational model explaining whether and how religious devotion affects decision-making in moral dilemmas. We will simulate and test sub-processes of the human cognitive system in isolation but, crucially, simulate and test their interactions in complex causal chains to facilitate understanding the mechanics of religious devotion. Parameters for the model will be recovered from a variety of laboratory and field studies and tested in a large-scale study across religious traditions, investigating how socio-ecological factors shape religious devotion and associated computations during moral dilemmas
