Abstract
In this paper, we analyze a meta-rewards game which is part of a generalized metanorms game. We theoretically analyze the game and conduct computer simulations on it. We clarify the payoff structure as to the benefit and the cost of reward and meta-reward actions. Whereas the benefit of a meta-reward, which is a rewarding action for the other rewarding actions, should be greater than its cost, it should not be much greater than the benefit of a rewarding action for other cooperative actions. This insight can be applied to the actions of users of social media, and we propose a set of policies for managers of social media services.
