    Supports→Introducing correlation among strategies (such as Fairmen preferring to interact with other Fairmen) lowers the threshold for Fairmen going to fixation

    Higher average payoffs for a strategy reduce the threshold frequency at which that strategy takes over (goes to fixation) in the population

    The model we just considered assumes that strategies are not correlated, that is, that the probability with which every strategy meets every other strategy is a simple function of their relative frequencies in the population. We now examine what happens in our dynamic resource-division game when we introduce correlation. Suppose that Fairmen have a slight ability to distinguish and seek out other Fairmen as interaction partners. In that case, Fairmen on average do better, and this must have the
