A well-known result by Vega-Redondo (1997) implies that in symmetric Cournot oligopoly, imitation leads to the … identical actions will be played some fraction of the time in the long run. We then conduct experiments to check this fragility …

We introduce a generalized theoretical approach to study imitation models and subject themodels to rigorous … experimental testing. In our theoretical analysis we find that the differentpredictions of previous imitation models are due to …. In alaboratory experiment we test the different theories by systematically varying informationconditions. We find that …

In this paper we test the AK model of growth with laboratory experiments. In each period, agents produce and trade …

Extending the die rolling experiment of Fischbacher and Föllmi-Heusi (2013), we compare gender effects with respect to …

environments, we use a laboratory experiment in which we form groups and assign leadership roles at random. We study an environment … behavior. Moreover, appointing leaders who are likely to have acted dishonestly in a preliminary stage of the experiment yields …

efficient outcomes, provided they have sufficient freedom to choose their interaction neighborhood. We conduct experiments with …
