These aren't the only other possible payoffs. It's just an idea.

这并不是唯一的收益只是个假设
Suppose I get an A and my pair gets a C,

假如我得到A我对手得C
then sure I get that initial payoff of 3,

没错我开始得到3单位效用
but unfortunately I can't sleep at night because I'm feeling so guilty.

但我感到愧疚我因良心受到谴责
I have some kind of moral conscience

而晚上睡不着觉
and after I've subtracted off my guilt feelings

所以减去我的负罪感的负效用后
I end up at -1, so think of this as guilt: some notion of morality.

我只得-1 把它看成负罪感吧
Conversely, if I chose a Beta and my pair chooses an Alpha,

相反如果我选β我对手选α
so I end up with a C and she ends up with an A,

我得到C她得到了A
then you know I have a bad time explaining to my parents

我回家后很难跟父母解释
why I got a C in this class,

为什么我只得到了C
and I have to say about how I'm going to be president anyway.

然后我还得表示下雄心壮志
