Do groups fight more? Experimental evidence on conflict initiation

Ke, Changxia; Morath, Florian; Seelos, Sophia - 2023

compares conflict choices of players in two-against-two, one-against-one, and two-against-one settings. Overall, we find … evidence for a higher propensity to opt for conflict when entering the fight in a group than when having to fight as a single … coincide with a biased perception of the fighting strength in asymmetric conflict. …

Bubble or no Bubble - The Impact of Market Model on the Formation of Price Bubbles in Experimental Asset Markets

Kirchler, Michael; Huber, Jürgen; Stöckl, Thomas - 2009

For the past two decades a market model introduced by Smith, Suchanek, and Williams (1988, henceforth SSW) has dominated experimental research on financial markets. In SSW the fundamental value of the traded asset is determined by the expected value of a finite stream of dividend payments. This...

Reducing strategic uncertainty increases group protection in collective risk social dilemmas

Steimanis, Ivo; Struwe, Natalie; Benda, Julian; Blanco, … - 2025

Interrelated global crises - climate change, pandemics, loss of ecosystem services and biodiversity - pose risks that demand collective solutions. Uncertainty about others' behavior, coupled with the dependence on some to take collective efforts to mitigate risks for all (e.g. conservation of...

Group polarization in the team dictator game reconsidered

Luhan, Wolfgang J.; Kocher, Martin; Sutter, Matthias - 2007

While most papers on team decision-making find that teams behave more selfishly, less trustingly and less altruistically than individuals, Cason and Mui (1997) report that teams are more altruistic than individuals in a dictator game. Using a within-subjects design we re-examine group...

Competition among public good providers for donor rewards

Struwe, Natalie; Blanco, Esther; Walker, James - 2021

We present experimental evidence for decision settings where public good providers compete for endogenous donations offered by outside donors. Donors receive benefits from public good provision but cannot provide the good themselves. The performance of three competition mechanisms is examined in...

Experimental evidence on sharing rules and additionality in transfer payments

Blanco, Esther; Struwe, Natalie; Walker, James - 2020

This study presents novel evidence showing that group payments distributed proportional to effort are as effective as payments targeted to individuals in increasing public good provision. The decision setting includes donors who make transfer payments to public good providers. The institutions...

Provision of public goods: Unconditional and conditional donations from outsiders

Blanco, Esther; Haller, Tobias; Walker, James M. - 2016

The provision of public goods often benefits a larger group than those who actively provide the public good. In an experimental setting, this paper addresses institutional arrangements between subjects who can provide a public good (insiders) and subjects who benefit from the public good but...

It is hard to beat the monkeys: On the value of asymmetric fundamental information in asset markets

Kirchler, Michael - 2008

In this paper we present results from experimental asset markets and simulations with traders who receive asymmetric information about the fundamental value of an asset. In the experimental markets with repetition insiders outperform the market and uninformed computerized random traders...

Revealed distributional preferences: Individuals vs. teams

Balafoutas, Loukas; Kerschbamer, Rudolf; Kocher, Martin; … - 2013

We compare experimentally the revealed distributional preferences of individuals and teams in allocation tasks. We find that teams are significantly more benevolent than individuals in the domain of disadvantageous inequality while the benevolence in the domain of advantageous inequality is...

Price efficiency and trading behavior in limit order markets with competing insiders

Stöckl, Thomas - 2013

We study price efficiency and trading behavior in laboratory limit order markets with asymmetrically informed traders. Markets differ in the number of insiders present and in the subset of traders who receive information about the number of insiders present. We observe that price efficiency (i)...
