Table 2. The average fitness payoff for ten strategies competing in a group under the conditions that group size is 50 (n = 50), benefit equals 1 and cost equals 0.25 (b = 1 and c = 0.25).

Note: Every strategy has five individual in this group, e.g. nAC = 5. The average fitness payoff in this table is based on 100 simulations. AC stands for always-cooperate. AD stands for always-defect. AT stands for always-trembling. TFT stands for tit-for-tat. GTFT stands for generous tit-for-tat. TWTH stands for TFT-with-trembling-hand. SDH stands for shame-driven-hiding. SDD stands for shame-driven-denying. GDA stands for guilt-driven-amending. P stands for Pavlov.
