Answer to Question 1

The game is not a prisoner's dilemma because one player's best choice depends on the choice made by the other player. For example, if Jerome donates, then Eliza should not donate, but if Jerome does not donate, then Eliza should donate. Therefore neither player has a dominant strategy, so this cannot be a prisoner's dilemma. This is not a battle of the sexes because if both Jerome and Eliza play their tough strategies and do not donate, the outcome is disastrous and Shari dies. This makes the scenario a game of chicken.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
