To commit or not to commit : endogenous timing in experimental duopoly markets

Huck, Steffen; Müller, Wieland; Normann, Hans-Theo - 1999

In this paper, we experimentally investigate the extended game with action commitment of Hamilton and Slutsky (1990). In their duopoly game, firms can choose their quantities in one of two periods before the market clears. If a firm commits to a quantity in period 1 it does not know whether the...

Stackelberg beats Cournot : on collusion and efficiency in experimental markets

Huck, Steffen; Müller, Wieland; Normann, Hans-Theo - 1999

We report on an experiment designed to compare Stackelberg and Cournot duopoly markets with quantity competition. For … each market we implement both a random matching and fixed-pairs version. Stackelberg markets yield, regardless of the … matching scheme, higher outputs than Cournot markets. Under random matching total quantities in Stackelberg markets are higher …

On the job search and the wage distribution

Christensen, Bent Jesper; Mortensen, Dale; Neumann, … - 2000

The estimates of the structural parameters of a job separations model derived from the theory of on-the-job search are reported in this papers. Given that each employer pays the same wage to all observably equivalent workers and that wage dispersion across employers exists in the sense that...

The relevance of equal splits : on a behavioral discontinuity in ultimatum games

Güth, Werner; Huck, Steffen; Müller, Wieland - 1998

The findings on the ultimatum game are considered as belonging to the most robust experimental results. In this paper we present a slightly altered version of the mini ultimatum game of Bolton and Zwick (1995). Whereas in the latter exactly equal splits were feasible in our games these were...

Maximization of empirical Shannon information in testing significant variables of linear model

Malyutov, M.; Sadaka, H. - 1998

Search for an unknown set A,Card(A) = s, of significant variables of a linear model with random IID discrete binary carriers and finitely supported IID noise is studied. Two statistics T1, Ts, based on maximization of Shannon Information (SI) of the corresponding classes of joint empirical...
