    "title": "Go fishing! Responsibility judgments when cooperation breaks down",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "Many social judgments hinge on assigning responsibility to individuals\nfor their role in a group’s success or failure. Often the\ngroup’s success depends on every team member acting in a rational\nway. When someone does not conform to what others\nexpect of them, cooperation breaks down. We present a computational\nmodel of responsibility judgments for individuals\nin a cooperative setting. We test the model in two behavioral\nexperiments where participants were asked to evaluate agents\nacting in a cooperative, one-shot game. In Experiment 1, we\nshow that participants’ action predictions are consistent with a\nrecursive reasoning model. In Experiment 2, we show that people’s\nassignments of blame are influenced by both an agent’s\npresumed rationality, or adherence to an expected policy, as\nwell as the pivotality of the agent’s actions, or how close the\nsituation was to one in which the action would have made a\ndifference to the outcome.",
