Cooperative Choice and its Framing Effect Under Threshold Uncertainty in a Provision Point Mechanism

Kotani, Koji; Tanaka, Kenta; Managi, Shunsuke - 2010

This paper examines how threshold uncertainty affects cooperative behaviors in each of public goods provision and public bads prevention. The intent is mainly motivated by the following facts. First, resource and environmental problems can be either framed as public bads prevention or public...

Bayesian repeated games and reputations

Forges, Françoise; Salomon, Antoine - 2014

Under appropriate assumptions (private values and uniform punishments), the Nash equilibria of a Bayesian repeated game without discounting are payoff-equivalent to tractable, completely revealing, equilibria and can be achieved as interim cooperative solutions of the initial Bayesian game. This...
