摘要

与标准的在线实验不同，游戏应用程序可以让参与者与大量合作伙伴自由互动，随心所欲。增益不仅仅是统计能力的一部分。文化进化论者可以使用游戏应用程序让大量参与者同步交流；建立现实的传输链，避免线性链中出现的信息丢失；研究伴侣选择和伴侣控制在社会交往中的作用。我们正在发布一款应用程序，旨在利用这些机会，生成真实的语言进化动态。

What smartphone apps may contribute to language evolution research

Unlike a standard online experiment, a gaming app lets participants interact freely with a vast number of partners, as many times as they wish. The gain is not merely one of statistical power. Cultural evolutionists can use gaming apps to allow large numbers of participants to communicate synchronously; to build realistic transmission chains that avoid the losses of information that occurs in linear chains; to study the effects of partner choice as well as partner control in social interactions. We are releasing an app designed to take advantage of these opportunities and generate realistic language evolution dynamics.
