Recent experimental results show that equilibrium selection in coordination games exhibits remarkable regularities. We analyze three important determinants for equilibrium selection in coordination games, the size of the population of players, the number of periods during which players interact...

"Approximate truth" refers to the principle that border cases should be analyzed by solving generic cases and solving border cases as limits of generic ones (Brennan et al., 2008). Our study experimentally explores whether this conceptual principle is also behaviorally appealing. To do so, we...

Two participants have to decide jointly, with the discussions preceding their choice being video/audiotaped. For two tasks, one with and one without strategic interaction, we refer to obvious reasoning styles as mental models. The videotaped discussions are analyzed according to which mental...
