Fairness in Round-Robin Tournaments with Four Players and Endogenous Sequences
Dietz, Fabian; Sahm, Marco - 2024
We examine the effects of endogenous sequences on the fairness in round-robin tournaments with four players, multiple … show that there is no sequence which implies perfect fairness. By contrast, some endogenous sequences imply horizontal ex …-ante fairness irrespective of the prize structure. In winner-take-all tournaments, additional endogenous sequences are horizontally …

Partial Norms
D'Adda, Giovanna - 2019
We consider an expanded notion of social norms that renders them belief-dependent and partial, formulate a series of related testable predictions, and design an experiment based on a variant of the dictator game that tests for empirical relevance. Main results: Normative beliefs influence...

Asymmetric discouragement in asymmetric contests
March, Christoph; Sahm, Marco - 2016
We provide new experimental evidence which suggests an asymmetric discouragement effect in lottery contests with heterogeneous abilities. Compared to a symmetric contest, subjects invest less effort when facing a stronger opponent, but they invest the same when facing a weaker opponent. Our...

The perks of being in the smaller team : incentives in overlapping contests
March, Christoph; Sahm, Marco - 2019
We investigate overlapping contests in multi-divisional organizations in which an individual's effort simultaneously determines the outcome of several contests on different hierarchical levels. We show that individuals in smaller units are advantaged in the grand (organization-wide) contest for...
