opportunities to identify learning rules, since on networks (compared to, e.g., random matching) more rules differ in terms of their … information they consult before making their choices. We use these data to estimate learning types using finite mixture models … find that learning depends on network position. Participants in more complex environments (with more network neighbors …

Using belief elicitation, the paper investigates the formation and the evolution of beliefs in a signalling game in which a common prior on Sender's type is not induced. Beliefs are elicited about the type of the Sender and about the strategies of the players. The experimental subjects often...

Eye-tracking is used to observe what information subjects look at in 4x4 normal …-form games; the eye-tracking results favor sophisticated learning over adaptive learning and lend support to anticipatory or … sophisticated models of learning in which subjects look at payoffs of other players to anticipate what those players might do. The …

We study the impact of advice or observation on the depth of reasoning in an experimental beauty-contest game. Both sources of information trigger faster convergence to the equilibrium. Yet, we find that subjects who receive naïve advice outperform uninformed subjects permanently, whereas...
