| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Large-scale cooperation among unrelated self-interested individuals is one of the most notable characteristics of human society. A social dilemma (SD) problem, which is a typical formalization, has been considered a difficult puzzle to solve. The current study focused on linkage, which has been proposed recently as a new solution, and examined psychological mechanisms that cause linkage. The results suggested that the existence of shared belief of linkage is not a necessary condition for linkage to emerge. Rather, people engaged in linkage based on internal attribution and impression evaluation of the others. In a theoretical study, although linkage between SD and generalized exchange can constitute equilibrium, linkage between SD and direct exchange cannot. These results are inconsistent with empirical data and remain a problem to be solved in the future.
