In this paper, we develop a new game theoretic network centrality measure based on the Shapley value. To do so, we …

We consider a generalization of the Minimum Cost Spanning Tree (MCST) model dubbed the Minimum Cost Connection Network … (MCCN) model, where network users have connection demands in the form of a pair of target nodes they want connected directly …, or indirectly. Given a network which satisfies all connection demands at minimum cost, the problem consists of allocating …

In this experiment, we endogenize the choice of which contribution scheme is implemented in a public good game. We investigate three rule-based contribution schemes and a voluntary contribution mechanism (VCM). The game is implemented either as a Single- or a Multi-Phase Game. In the...

We study framing effects in repeated social dilemmas by comparing payoff-equivalent Give- and Take-framed public goods games under varying matching mechanisms (Partners or Strangers) and levels of feedback (Aggregate or Individual). In the Give-framed game, players contribute to a public good,...

In this experiment, we endogenize the choice of which contribution scheme is implemented in a public goods game. We investigate three rule-based contribution schemes. In a first step, players agree on a common group provision level using the principle of the smallest common denominator....

We report experimental findings on the impact of network structure on decentralized monitoring and punishment in public … exogenously determined network. We examine contributions and punishment decisions in three network environments - a Complete … network, a Circle network, and an Asymmetric network. We find that average contributions are lower in the Asymmetric network …

We analyze linear, weakest-link and best-shot public goods games in which a distinguished team member, the team allocator, has property rights over the benefits from the public good and can distribute them among team members. These team allocator games are intended to capture natural asymmetries...

A growing body of literature in experimental economics examines how cognitive ability affects cooperation in social dilemma settings. We contribute to the existing literature by studying this relationship in a more complex and strategic environment when the number of partners increases in an...
