We run a computerised experiment of network formation where all connections are beneficial and only direct links are costly. Players simultaneously submit link proposals; a connection is made only when both players involved agree. We use both simulated and experimentally generated data to test...

In this paper, we discuss the derivation and application of a bivariate ordered probit model with mixed effects. Our approach allows one to estimate the distribution of the effect (gamma) of an endogenous ordered variable on an ordered explanatory variable. By allowing gamma to vary over the...

Experimental data on social preferences present a number of features that need to be incorporated in econometric modelling. We explore a variety of econometric modelling approaches to the analysis of such data. The approaches under consideration are: the random utility approach (in which it is...

This paper estimates the determinants of decision time for different types of decision maker in the context of an experimental investigation of multiple prior models of behaviour under ambiguity. Four models are considered: Expected Utility, Smooth, Rank Dependent Expected Utility and Alpha...

In the context of an allocation game, this paper analyses the proposerś reported beliefs about the responderś willingness to accept (or reject) the proposed split of the pie. The proposerś beliefs are elicited via a quadratic scoring rule. An econometric model of the proposerś beliefs is...

This paper examines the consequences of introducing a normally distributed effect into a system where the dependent variable is ordered and the explanatory variable is ordered and endogenous. Using simulation techniques we show that a naive bivariate ordered probit estimator which fails to take...
