1 A smple model of group selecton that cannot be analyzed wth nclusve ftness

5 Two dfferent ssues 1) Has group selecton shaped (human, cooperatve) behavour? 2) Is group selecton equvalent wth nclusve ftness?

6 'Group selecton', even n the rare cases where t s not actually wrong, s a cumbersome, tme-wastng, dstractng mpedment to what would otherwse be a clear and straghtforward understandng of what s gong on n natural selecton. Rchard Dawkns (2012)

7 Inclusve ftness theory, summarsed n Hamlton s rule, s a domnant explanaton for the evoluton of socal behavour. A parallel thread of evolutonary theory holds that selecton between groups s also a canddate explanaton for socal evoluton. The mathematcal equvalence of these two approaches has long been known. Marshall (2011)

8 No group selecton model has ever been constructed where the same result cannot be found wth kn selecton theory West, Grffn & Gardner (2007)

9 Inclusve ftness models and group selecton models are extremely smlar to each other. Ther only fundamental dfference s n how they choose to decompose ftness. Other dfferences are trval matters of the form of presentaton. Queller (1992)

10 Mathematcal gene-selectonst (nclusve ftness) models can be translated nto multlevel selecton models and vce versa. One can travel back and forth between these theores wth the pont of entry chosen accordng to the problem beng addressed. Hölldobler and Wlson (2009)

11 The Prce formulaton convnced Hamlton that kn selecton was group selecton. Wade et al. (2010)

40 If you want to wn a game, you should score [at least] one goal more that your opponent Johan Crujff

41 The frequency has gone up because the frequency has gone up the Prce Equaton

42 Is there such a thng as Prce s theorem?

43 Theorem 1 (bology): If the left hand sde n the Prce equaton s computed as suggested n Prce (1970) and the rght hand sde as well, then they are equal.

44 Theorem 1 (football): If team A scores more goals than team B, then team A wns.

45 Theorem 2 (football): If team A and B have equally able players, and nteractons occur accordng to Assumpton 1,, Assumpton N, and team A plays and B plays 4-4-2, then team A s more lkely to wn than team B.

46 Theorem 2 (bology): If the ftness of an ndvdual depends on ts own and the other ndvdual s behavour accordng to Assumpton 1,, Assumpton N, than the behavour that emerges s more lkely to be behavour A than t s to be behavour B.
