This paper presents a dynamic model of a competitive R&D and production duopoly subject to knowledge spillovers. Two asymmetric firms operate for a limited period of time and dispose their knowledge capital in the end. Both firms and the social planner prefer the R&Dcooperative strategy over the...

Cooperating, Fast and Slow: Testing the Social Heuristics Hypothesis.

Strømland, Eirik; Tjøtta, Sigve; Torsvik, Gaute - 2016

Are humans intuitively cooperative, or do we need to deliberate in order to be generous to others? The Social Heuristics Hypothesis (SHH) proposes that fast instinctive decision making promotes cooperation in social dilemmas. In this paper, we conduct a novel time-pressure experiment to shed...

Improving Human Deception Detection Using Algorithmic Feedback

Serra-Garcia, Marta; Gneezy, Uri - 2023

Can algorithms help people detect deception in high-stakes strategic interactions? Participants watching the pre-play communication of contestants in the TV show Golden Balls display a limited ability to predict contestants' behavior, while algorithms do significantly better. We provide...

The Team Allocator Game: Allocation Power in Public Goods Games

Karakostas, Alexandros; Kocher, Martin G.; Matzat, Dominik - 2021

We analyze linear, weakest-link and best-shot public goods games in which a distinguished team member, the team allocator, has property rights over the benefits from the public good and can distribute them among team members. These team allocator games are intended to capture natural asymmetries...

Repeated interaction and its impact on cooperation and surplus allocation : an experimental analysis

Di Guida, Sibilla; The Anh Han; Kirchsteiger, Georg; … - In: Games 12 (2021) 1/25, pp. 1-19

This paper investigates how the possibility of affecting group composition combined with the possibility of repeated interaction impacts cooperation within groups and surplus distribution. We developed and tested experimentally a Surplus Allocation Game where cooperation of four agents is needed...

Games with Synergistic Preferences

Jamison, Julian - In: Games 3 (2012) 1, pp. 41-55

Players in economic situations often have preferences not only over their own outcome but also over what happens to fellow players, entirely apart from any strategic considerations. While this can be modeled directly by simply writing down final preferences, these are commonly unknown <em>a priori</em>....

Economic harmony : a rational theory of fairness and cooperation in strategic interactions

Suleiman, Ramzi - In: Games 13 (2022) 3, pp. 1-21

account well for the observed fairness and cooperation in all the tested games. The impressive predictions of the theory … promoting fairness and cooperation in the discussed games is only marginal. Strikingly, the Golden Ratio, known for its … alternating offers, and the sequential CPR dilemma game. The emergence of the golden ratio as the fairness solution in these games …

Strong, Bold, and Kind: Self-Control and Cooperation in Social Dilemmas

Kocher, Martin G.; Martinsson, Peter; Myrseth, Kristian … - 2013

We develop a model that relates self-control and conflict identification to cooperation patterns in social dilemmas. As predicted, we find in a laboratory public goods experiment a robust association between stronger self-control and higher levels of cooperation. This means that there is...
