Theoretical models on network formation focus mostly on the stability and efficiency of equilibria, but they cannot … starting network. To study factors affecting equilibrium selection, we designed a network formation experiment with multiple … stage in which the network is disrupted. This setting allows us to analyze the interplay between the need for farsightedness …

Lab studies of network formation games have found that adherence to social norms of … reciprocity and inequity aversion are also drivers of network choices. No study so far has attempted to investigate the role of …
