The principle of “win-stay, lose-shift” journ.

[Alichka]

Уважаемые коллеги, помогите ,плиз, перевести название принципа.
Встречается это С/с в следующем контексте:
Co-operative populations are sometimes dominated by a strategy called Generous Tit-for-Tat, a strategy named Pavlov by the mathematicians David and Vivien Kraines. After experiencing a reward for mutual co-operation, a Pavlov player repeats the former co-operative move. After getting away with unilateral defection, it similarly repeats its last move. But after being punished for mutual defection, Pavlov switches to co-operation.

Внимание и тут появляется эта фраза:

This principle of “win-stay, lose-shift” seems to work well in many situations.

Заранее огромное Всем спасибо

"извини-подвинься"? :)

[Alichka]

Нет, тут что-то другое.

Потому как, до этого было написано:

"This situation can be viewed as a simple game. The two players engaged in it have only to decide whether they wish to co-operate with each other or not. If they both want to co-operate, they get a reward of three points each. If both defect (by not co-operating), they get only one point each. But if one player defects and the other co-operates, the defector receives five points, whereas the player who chose to co-operate receives nothing..."

То есть, естественно, все будут выбирать то, что выгоднее.
И потом идёт This principle of “win-stay, lose-shift”

"со щитом или на щите"
ближе к тексту - "успех - продвиньтесь вперёд, провал - сойдите с дистанции"

[Alichka]

ну тут как раз речь и идёт про "естественный отбор" и про "принцип взаимопомощи" :))
Спасибки всем, очень помогли, чесс слово

"... stay with the winning strategy, and if it is a losing strategy... try something different: Win-Stay, Lose-Shift"
