    It is not the case that If misframing were the mechanism, cooperation rates would drop to near-zero once subjects are corrected—but they do not fall to Nash equilibrium predictions.

    ?Set your confidence on the premises below to see your aggregate.

    Reasons For

    1 perspective
    Reason for
    ?
    • 1.Subjects may reframe again post-correction using alternative interpretations, maintaining cooperation without reverting to initial misunderstanding.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.Dropout or demand effects could mask actual defection; those who remain cooperative after correction may be unrepresentative sample.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.Near-zero predictions assume pure Nash play, but human baseline behavior typically exceeds theory; correction may not change cooperation relative to baseline.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    Reasons Against

    1 perspective
    Reason against
    ?
    • 1.Subjects possess stable cooperative preferences independent of frame; correction removes cognitive obstacle but not underlying motivation.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.Nash equilibrium assumes rational self-interest; persistent cooperation suggests subjects value fairness or reciprocity as terminal values.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.Cooperative norms are deeply internalized; brief reframing cannot override social preferences formed through years of cultural conditioning.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak
