Recently there has been much theoretical and experimental work on learning in games. However, learning usually means … "learning about the strategic behavior of opponents" rather than "learning about the game" as such. In contrast, here we report … on an experiment designed to test whether players learn a) the relevant features of the payoff structure of a 2x2 game (e …

Numerous laboratory experiments show that workers reciprocate to high wages with high effort, when there is perfect … information on the surplus created.

Finally, we study reputation effects in the context of herding. …Most real world situations which are susceptible to herding are also characterized by direct payoff externalities.
