An Evolutionary Game Approach to the Development of Children's Social Behavior

该项目由四个研究部组成；(1)进化博弈论的探索，重点是合作小组的形成过程，(2)关于儿童社会互动(小组形成、加入或驱逐小组、领导力形成等)的实地工作研究。在幼儿园和幼儿园，(3)儿童的教育实践注重培养儿童在游戏中进行互动和合作的社交技能；(4)基于(1)~(3)的儿童群体形成的多智能体模拟模型的构建。这些师定期见面，交流研究成果。研究结果表明，进化博弈理论和基于进化博弈的多智能体模拟研究将为儿童早期教育策略，特别是儿童在集体游戏中的社会协商和互动提供新的视角。

The project consisted of four research divisions ; (1)exploration of evolutionary game theories, focusing upon processes of collaboratory group formation, (2)field work research on children's social interactions (group formation, participation to, or expulsion from a group, leadership formation, etc.) in kindergartens and nursery schools, (3)educational practices in child cares to foster the social skills to interactions and cooperations in plays, and (4)construction of multi-agent simulation models of children's group formation using based upon (1)〜(3). These divisions met regulary, and exchanged their research results. The results indicated that evolutionary game theories and multi-agent simulation studies based upon evolutionary games would provide new perspectives on early childhood education paractices, especially on children's social negotiation and interaction with each other in group plays.
