Differential Neural Recruitment during Violent Video Game Play in Violent- and Nonviolent- Game Players

A controversy exists about the effects of violent video game play, with some studies showing “positive” effects on spatial attention, others showing “negative” effects on aggression, and others suggesting that there are no important effects. The present study examined neural recruitment during violent videogame play among 13 late adolescent gamers, half of whom habitually played violent games a...

Adaptive Play in a Pollution Bargaining Game

We apply adaptive play to a simplified pollution game with two players. We find that agents with longer memory paradoxically perform worse in the long run. We interpret this result as an indication that adaptive play may be too restrictive as a model of agent behaviour in this context, although it can serve as a starting point for further research on bounded rationality in pollution games.

Decentralized Game Play

In our project we address the problem of how to implement a stateful multi-player game while minimizing trust in third-parties. By “stateful” we mean that there is some meaningful state that persists between separate interactions, as opposed to each interaction being selfcontained, as in chess, tic-tac-toe, etc. A typical example of a stateful game is poker, since each hand affects the money ba...

The game motoneurons play

We apply a Game Theoretical approach to analyze the competition between motoneurons (MNs) innervating a common muscle. A typical skeletal muscle consists of many thousands of fibers. At birth each muscle-fiber is innervated by several MNs, but during the first couple of weeks after birth, a competitive mechanism called “synapse elimination” abolishes all inputs but one, which we term “the winne...
