Researchers have discovered a simple method, "look twice, forgive once," that helps maintain cooperation in societies. This method focuses on judging individuals based on multiple actions rather than just a single instance. Mathematical modeling shows that this strategy, which involves forgiving some bad actions, is sufficient to sustain cooperation and is more robust than other strategies. The findings suggest that this behavioral strategy might be an ancient and prevalent method for promoting cooperation within human societies.
