The life history of learning: Demographic structure changes cultural outcomes

Fig 3

Differences in frequency after 5000 time steps between a trait with a fitness effect and a neutral trait for different learning strategies.

Panel A shows results for a trait that increases fertility and panel B shows those results for a trait that increases survival. Parameters are b = 4, s1 = 0.6, s2 = s3 = s4 = 0.7, s5 = 0.4. For panel A ws = 0 and for panel B wf = 0. Starting population size was 100 individuals and the simulation ran for 5000 time steps. Starting age structure was uniform with 20% of the population in each age class.
