We conduct a laboratory experiment where third-party spectators can redistribute resources between two agents, thereby … inequalities, but many follow an interior allocation rule previously unaccounted for by the fairness views in the literature. These …

This study examines how employees internalize differences in social distance between themselves and their managers when they are competing for a reward given by the manager. In an employer/employee relationship, this difference in social distance between the employer and the various employees...

Arad and Rubinstein (2012a) have designed a novel game to study level-k reasoning experimentally. Just like them, we find that the depth of reasoning is very limited and clearly different from equilibrium play. We show that such behavior is even robust to repetitions, hence there is, at best,...

In an experiment on a subjective claims problem we compare three unanimity bargaining procedures - the Demand, the … Offer and the Exit variant - in terms of fairness and efficiency. To assess the fairness of the allocations obtained by … elicited in a hypothetical fairness question, and we evaluate them from an impartial point of view using spectators' responses …

Recent experimental studies suggest that risk aversion is negatively related to cognitive ability. In this paper we … population for our experiment. By presenting subjects with choice tasks that vary the bias induced by random choices, we are able … to generate both negative and positive correlations between risk aversion and cognitive ability.
