This paper built a simulation system of Public Goods Experiment to study the Conditional Cooperation. The study of this paper
was divided into 3 parts including the execution of Public Goods Experiment in laboratory, the BPNN (Back Propagation Neural
Networks) modeling of the resulting data of the former experiments and finally the developing of a simulation system of Public
Goods Experiment. The results of the simulation show that displaying the number and name of people who have endowed to the
Public Goods Pool instantly is the best condition for stimulating Conditional Cooperation which also means the best information
displaying condition of avoiding free riders.
