Adherence to social norms is underwritten not only by the cognitively mediated pursuit of self-interest, but also by emotions. Shame, guilt, pride, empathy, regret and other visceral reactions play a central role in sustaining cooperative relations, including successful transactions in the absence of complete contracting. We consider a public goods game where agents maximize a utility function that captures five distinct motives: material payoffs to oneself, one’s valuation of the payoffs to others, which depend both on one’s altruism and one’s degree of reciprocity, and one’s sense of guilt or shame in response to one’s own and others’ actions. We present evidence suggesting that such emotions play a role in the public goods game, and we develop an analytical model showing that reciprocity, shame, and guilt increase the level of cooperation in the group. Finally, we provide an explanation of the long term evolutionary success of prosocial emotions in terms of both the individual and group-level benefits they confer. ∗We would like to thank KennethArrow, John Geanakoplos, Charles Manski, Giorgio Topa, Peyton Young for helpful comments, and the John D. and Catherine T.
