Abstract
We tested whether the motivation to be cooperative increases after a rewarding joint-action experience. In one study participants defected less in a one-shot prisoner’s dilemma, but only if they were classified as proselfs. In a second study, contributions in a one-shot public good’s game did not drop after time delay.
