classic coordination problem exists. Using a well-established paradigm, we examine how a common cognitive state (insufficient … sleep) impacts coordination outcomes. Our data indicate that insufficient sleep increases coordination failure costs, which …

This paper studies the effect of endogenous group formation on the outcome in two types of coordination games with … more groups within which they want to play the coordination game. In the theoretical part we show that a simple myopic best … reply dynamics under endogenous group formation leads to the payoff dominant outcome in both types of coordination games …

We study the impact of communication on behavior in a two-stage coordination game with asymmetric payoffs. We test … sustain coordination over time and alleviate the inequality induced by the asymmetry of payoffs. Third, communication …
