Recently there has been much theoretical and experimental work on learning in games. However, learning usually means "learning about the strategic behavior of opponents" rather than "learning about the game" as such. In contrast, here we report on an experiment designed to test whether players...

Stereotypes, Sex Discrimination and Paranoia - an experimental study

Holm, Håkan J. - 2000

We analyze results from two categories of experiments where the subjects received controlled signals about the sex of … their co-players. In a series of Battle of the Sexes experiments the subjects played more hawkish against women than against … men. The impact of the sex signal was most pronounced among female subjects. In the second category of experiments we …

Motivation Crowding Theory: A Survey of Empirical Evidence

Frey, Bruno S.; Jegen, Reto - CESifo - 2000

The motivation crowding effect suggests that an external intervention via monetary incentives or punishments may undermine (and under different indentifiable conditions strengthen) intrinsic motivation. As of today, the theoretical \lang1033 possibility of crowding effects is widely accepted...

The Impact of Fairness on Decision Making - An Analysis of Different Video Experiments

Hennig-Schmidt, Heike - University of Bonn, Germany - 2000

Experimentally observed deviations of behavior from game theoretic predictions suggest that fairness does influence decision making. Fairness in the sense of equality has become an essential element of economic models aiming at explaining actual behavior (cf. Fehr and Schmidt, 1999; Bolton and...

Absent-minded drivers in the lab: Testing Gilboa's model

Huck, Steffen; Müller, Wieland - Sonderforschungsbereich 373, Quantifikation und … - 2000

This note contributes to the discussion of decision problems with imperfect recall from an empirical point of view. We argue that, using standard methods of experimental economics, it is impossible to induce (or control for) absent-mindedness of subjects. Nevertheless, it is possible to test...
