SUMMARY:Mathematics’ Loss is Psychology’s Gain: Game Theory and 1950's 
 Social Psychology
DESCRIPTION:Dans le cadre des conférences du CIRST\, Paul Erickson (Wesley
 an University) présentera une communication\, dont voici le résumé. In 
 the 1950s and  1960s\, long before it gained its current disciplinary asso
 ciation with  economics\, game theory was perhaps most visible within soci
 al psychology  – especially in the context of investigations of teamwork
  and group  task performance.  The association of game theory with this a
 rea of the  behavioral sciences may seem odd\, given that then (as now) th
 ere was  little consensus among game theorists as to how to solve the kind
  of the  games that were of greatest interest to social psychologists:  mu
 lti-player and non-zero-sum games.  Yet if anything\, the failures of  ga
 me theory per se were precisely what made games attractive to social  psyc
 hologists.  By examining two research programs from this period\, one  as
 sociated with the group dynamics of Morton Deutsch and the other with  the
  systems theory of Anatol Rapoport\, this paper clarifies the role of  gam
 e theory (and theory more generally) in the postwar behavioral  sciences.
