Quantum Negotiation Games: Toward Ethical Equilibria.
Article in Entropy (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This paper applies quantum game theory to three ethical dilemmas that frequently arise in negotiation: cooperation versus competition, self-interest versus equity, and honesty versus deception. Using quantum extensions of selected games such as the Prisoner's Dilemma, the Ultimatum Game, the Battle of the Sexes, and the Buyer-Seller Game, we examine whether quantization can generate equilibria that improve classical outcomes while also aligning more closely with ethical principles such as fairness, cooperation, and honesty. The analysis shows that quantum strategies, through entanglement and superposition, can sustain cooperative, fair, or honest behaviour as stable equilibria, outcomes that are typically unstable or unattainable in classical settings. The specific outcomes depend on the chosen quantization method, but across cases, the analysis consistently shows that quantum formulations expand the range of solutions in which efficiency and ethical principles co-exist.
