We conduct a series of laboratory experiments to understand what role commitment and reputation play in bargaining. The … experiments implement the Abreu and Gul (2000) bargaining model that demonstrates how introducing behavioral types, which are …. Overall, the results suggest that the Abreu and Gul (2000) model can be used to gain insights to bargaining behavior …

by a draw from an Ellsberg urn. In a within-subject experiment, subjects make decisions in three different bargaining … mechanisms: unstructured bargaining, the Texas shoot-out, and a K + 1 auction. We find that the K +1 auction is the most e¢ cient … mechanism, which is in line with theory. Free format bargaining yields a surprising number of disagreements, which are not …

We consider bilateral non-cooperative bargaining on the division of a surplus. Compared to the canonical bargaining … game in the tradition of Rubinstein, we introduce additional sources of friction into the bargaining process … month, quarter, or year. Bargaining rounds are of non-trivial length, so that counter-offers may be made without triggering …

Bilateral bargaining situations are often characterized by informational asymmetries concerning the size of what is at …

We analyze a bargaining model where there is a long-term relationship between a seller and a buyer and there is … bargaining over a sequence of surpluses that arrives at fixed points in time. Markov Perfect Equilibria are analyzed and …

The Nash bargaining solution of a modified bargaining problem in the contract space yields the pair of stationary … vanishes, convergence to the Nash bargaining solution is immediate by the Maximum Theorem. Numerical implementation in standard …

The bargaining model with stochastic order of proposing players is properly embedded in continuous time and it is … the Nash bargaining solution of a modified bargaining problem and the Maximum Theorem implies convergence to the Nash … bargaining solution when time between proposals vanishes. The model unifies alternating offers, one-sided offers and random …

We study a bargaining model with a disagreement game between offers and counteroffers. In order to characterize the set …
