How do people learn? We assess, in a distribution-free manner, subjects' learning and choice rules in dynamic two …-armed bandit (probabilistic reversal learning) experiments. To aid in identification and estimation, we use auxiliary measures of … subjects' beliefs, in the form of their eye-movements during the experiment. Our estimated choice probabilities and learning …

Vice versa …, 'cross-game learning' may rather be understood as 'cross-game transfer', as it has the potential to benefit bidders with …

In this paper, I present an empirical model of learning under ambiguity in the context of clinical trials. Patients are … concern with learning the treatment effect of the experimental drug, but face the ambiguity of random group assignment. A two … dimensional Bayesian model of learning is proposed to capture patients' beliefs on the treatment effect and group assignment …
