Intergroup conflict: individual, group, and collective interests
Abstract
Intergroup conflicts generally involve conflicts of interests within the competing groups as well. This article outlines a taxonomy of games, called team games, which incorporates the intragroup and intergroup levels of conflict. Its aims are to provide a coherent framework for analyzing the prototypical problems of cooperation and competition that arise within and between groups, and to review an extensive research program that has used this framework to study individual and group behavior in the laboratory. Depending on the game's payoff structure, contradictions or conflicts are created among the rational choices at the individual, group, and collective levels-a generalization of the contradiction between individual and collective rationality occurring in the traditional mixed-motive games. These contradictions are studied so as to identify the theoretical and behavioral conditions that determine which level of rationality prevails.

By introducing competition between the in-group and the out-group, the optimal strategy in the intergroup prisoner's dilemma is for all in-group members to contribute, which results in the largest payoff to the in-group.
“By introducing competition between the in-group and the out-group, the optimal strategy in the IPD is for all in-group members to contribute, which results in the largest payoff to the in-group (Bornstein, 2003).”

Knowing that each player's contribution becomes critical to win the competition incentivizes rational players to cooperate in the intergroup prisoner's dilemma, and these extrinsic incentives should hold for proselfs and prosocials alike.
“Knowing that each player's contribution becomes critical to win the competition incentivizes rational players to cooperate in the IPD (reviewed in Bornstein 2003), and these extrinsic incentives should hold for proselfs and prosocials alike.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
