Conditional cooperation and voluntary contributions to public goods

Keser, Claudia; Winden, Frans A. A. M. van - 2000

We compare a partners condition where the same small group of subjects plays arepeated public good game to astrangers condition where subjects play this game in changing group formations.Subjects in the partners conditioncontribute from the first period on significantly more to the public good...

How universal is behavior?

Brandts, Jordi; Saijō, Tatsuyoshi; Schram, Arthur - 2002

This paper studies behavior in experiments with a linear voluntary contributions mechanism for public goods conducted in Japan, the Netherlands, Spain and the USA. The same experimental design was used in the four countries. Our 'contribution function' design allows us to obtain a view of...

Evolution of strategies in repeated games with discounting

Veelen, Matthijs van - 2006

In repeated games there is in general a large set of equilibria. We also know that in the repeated prisoners dilemma there is a profusion of neutrally stable strategies, but no strategy that is evolutionarily stable. This paper investigates whether and how neutrally stable strategies can be...

Exploitation and cooperation in networks

Galeotti, Andrea; Meléndez-Jiménez, Miguel A. - 2004

A fundamental question in social sciences is how trust emerges. We provide an answer which relies on the formation of social and economic relationships. We argue that behind trust lies the fact that individuals invest in connections taking into account the potential externalities networks...

In and out of equilibrium : evolution of strategies in repeated games with discounting

Veelen, Matthijs van; García, Julián - 2010

Repeated games tend to have large sets of equilibria. We also know that in the repeated prisoners dilemma there is a profusion of neutrally stable strategies, but no strategy that is evolutionarily stable. This paper shows that for all of these neutrally stable strategies there is a stepping...

Members, joiners, free-riders, supporters

Ansink, Erik; Withagen, Cees - 2015

We augment the standard cartel formation game from non-cooperative coalition theory, often applied in the context of international environmental agreements on climate change, with the possibility that singletons support coalition formation without becoming coalition members themselves. Rather,...
