Towards an understanding of the endogenous nature of identity in games

Bezrukova, Katerina; Smith, John - 2008

We test the assumption that preferences are unchanged throughout a strategic game in the absence of feedback.

The Power of Focal Points is Strong: Coordination Games with Labels and Payoffs

Bodoff, David - 2020

People’s ability to coordinate on salient labels has been widely reported since Schelling. However, it is not known how players behave when label salience conflicts with payoff dominance. We consider such games by independently varying the two elements, focusing especially on cases where the...
