How cognitive skills affect strategic behavior : cognitive ability, fluid intelligence and judgment

Gill, David; Knepper, Zachary; Prowse, Victoria; Zhou, Junya - 2024

We explore the influence of cognitive ability and judgment on strategic behavior in the beauty contest game (where the Nash equilibrium action is zero). Using the level-k model of bounded rationality, cognitive ability and judgment both predict higher level strategic thinking. However,...

Strategic complexity and the value of thinking

Gill, David; Prowse, Victoria - 2022

Response times are a simple low-cost indicator of the process of reasoning in strategic games. In this paper, we leverage the dynamic nature of response-time data from repeated strategic interactions to measure the strategic complexity of a situation by how long people think on average when they...

Using response times to measure strategic complexity and the value of thinking in games

Gill, David; Prowse, Victoria L. - 2017

Response times are a simple low-cost indicator of the process of reasoning in strategic games (Rubinstein, 2007; Rubinstein, 2016). We leverage the dynamic nature of response-time data from repeated strategic interactions to measure the strategic complexity of a situation by how long people think on...

Norm enforcement in social dilemmas : an experiment with police commissioners

Dickinson, David L.; Masclet, David; Villeval, Marie-Claire - 2014

Do individuals trained in law enforcement punish or reward differently from typical student subjects? We analyze norm enforcement behavior of newly appointed police commissioners in both a Voluntary Contribution Mechanism game and a Common Pool Resource game. Our experimental design includes...

Ambiguity on audits and cooperation in a public goods game

Dai, Zhixin; Hogarth, Robin M.; Villeval, Marie-Claire - 2014

We investigate the impact of various audit schemes on the future provision of public goods, when contributing less than the average of the group is sanctioned exogenously and the probability of an audit is unknown. We study how individuals update their beliefs about the probability of being...

Experimental games on networks : underpinnings of behavior and equilibrium selection

Charness, Gary; Feri, Francesco; Meléndez-Jiménez, … - 2014

In this paper, we describe a series of laboratory experiments that implement specific examples of a more general network structure and we examine equilibrium selection. Specifically, actions are either strategic substitutes or strategic complements, and participants have either complete or...
