In any interaction of dyads the recent as well as the distant past plays a role, shaping the next action and the general strategy. We will investigate how and which aspects of the past behaviour of the two agents predict their subsequent actions, and how to induce strategy changes. To quantify and disentangle these past dependencies, we will employ statistical models and information theory, and to induce strategy changes in a controlled manner, we will develop a generalised dyadic foraging game. Thereby, we can investigate precisely how cognitive processes in dyadic interactions, in particular the temporal horizon over which information is integrated, predict the chosen strategy of the agent.
