A computer model found that cooperation could persist up to a threshold before giving way abruptly to defection. The result concerns synthetic agents in a stylized setup, not direct evidence about human or animal behaviour.

A methods analysis found that exact within-study variance calculations and BGLMM generally performed better than a standard approximate logit approach when diagnostic-test studies were sparse or small.
