Luck, Choice and Responsibility: An Experimental Study of Fairness Views

Möllerström, Johanna; Reme, Bjørn-Atle; Sørensen, … - Institutet för Näringslivsforskning (IFN) - 2014

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 …

Evolution and Refinement with Endogenous Mistake Probabilities

van Damme, Eric; Weibull, Jörgen W. - Institutet för Näringslivsforskning (IFN) - 1999

Bergin and Lipman (1996) show that the refinement effect from the random mutations in the adaptive population dynamics in Kandori, Mailath and rob (1993) and Young (1993) is due to restrictions on how these mutation rates vary across population states. We here model mutation rates as...

What have we learned from Evolutionary Game Theory so far?

Weibull, Jörgen W. - Institutet för Näringslivsforskning (IFN) - 1997

Evolutionary theorizing has a long tradition in economics. Only recently has this approach been brought into the framework of non-cooperative game theory. Evolutionary game theory studies the robustness of strategic behaviour with respect to evolutionary forces in the context of games played...

Clever Agents in Young's Evolutionary Bargaining Model

Weibull, Jörgen W.; Saez-Marti, Maria - Institutet för Näringslivsforskning (IFN) - 1998

In the models of Young (1993a,b), boundedly rational individuals are recurrently matched to play a game, and they play myopic best replies to the recent history of play. It could therefore be an advantage to instead play a myopic best reply to the myopic best reply, something boundedly rational...

Evolution with Mutations Driven by Control Costs

Weibull, Jörgen W.; van Damme, Eric - Institutet för Näringslivsforskning (IFN) - 1998

Bergin and Lipman (1996) show that the refinement effect from the random mutations in the adaptive dynamics in Kandori, Mailath and Rob (1993) and Young (1993) is due to restrictions on how these mutation rates vary across population states. We here model these mutation rates as endogenously...

Direct Investment and Local Content Rules in the European Community

Andersson, Thomas - Institutet för Näringslivsforskning (IFN) - 1990

This paper analyses the behaviour of competing governments in the EC with respect to inflows of direct investment. Solving a non-cooperative sequential bargaining game in which host countries gain from direct investment through tax revenue or imposition of forced local subcontracting, it is...

Risk Aversion Relates to Cognitive Ability: Fact or Fiction?

Andersson, Ola; Tyran, Jean-Robert; Wengström, Erik; … - Institutet för Näringslivsforskning (IFN) - 2013

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. Structural estimation …
