Abstract
In this paper we analyze the impact of enhancement biases on team formation. We show that learning positively about team partners can promote cooperation among individuals as it reduces the negative effect of commonly observed self-enhancement biases. This is the case because evaluating peers favorably promotes the convergence in beliefs about the abilities of the different team members. We show that this effect is even stronger when peer-enhancement biases are reciprocal and balanced.
