Team production and esteem : a dual selves model with belief-dependent preferences
Greiff, Matthias - In: Games 10 (2019) 3/33, pp. 1-20

Behavioural isomorphism, cognitive economy and recursive thought in non-transitive game strategy
Dyson, Benjamin J. - In: Games 10 (2019) 3/32, pp. 1-14
Game spaces in which an organism must repeatedly compete with an opponent for mutually exclusive outcomes are critical methodologies for understanding decision-making under pressure. In the non-transitive game rock, paper, scissors (RPS), the only technique that guarantees the lack of...

Anticipated communication in the ultimatum game
Capizzani, Mario; Mittone, Luigi; Musau, Andrew; … - In: Games 8 (2017) 3, pp. 1-20
