Coordination and cooperation problems in network good production
Knigge, Antonie; Buskens, Vincent Willem - In: Games 1 (2010) 3, pp. 357-380
collaboration in a dynamic network setting. We develop an experiment in which coordination problems are mainly due to finding … together rather than investing separately. We study the coordination and cooperation problems that might hinder successful … collaborate. The results show that as costs of forming links increase, groups succeed less often in solving the coordination …

An adaptive learning model in coordination games
Funai, Naoki - In: Games 4 (2013) 4, pp. 648-669
In this paper, we provide a theoretical prediction of the way in which adaptive players behave in the long run in normal form games with strict Nash equilibria. In the model, each player assigns subjective payoff assessments to his own actions, where the assessment of each action is a weighted...

Hierarchical Bayesian analysis of biased beliefs and distributional other-regarding preferences
Aksoy, Ozan; Weesie, Jeroen - In: Games 4 (2013) 1, pp. 66-88
This study investigates the relationship between an actor’s beliefs about others’ other-regarding (social) preferences and her own other-regarding preferences, using an “avant-garde” hierarchical Bayesian method. We estimate two distributional other-regarding preference parameters, α...

Auctioning the right to play ultimatum games and the impact on equilibrium selection
Shachat, Jason M.; Swarthout, J. Todd - In: Games 4 (2013) 4, pp. 738-753
We auction scarce rights to play the Proposer and Responder positions in ultimatum games. As a control treatment, we randomly allocate these rights and charge exogenous participation fees. These participation fee sequences match the auction price sequence from a session of the original...

Coordination, differentiation and fairness in a population of cooperating agents
Do, Anne-ly; Rudolf, Lars; Gross, Thilo - In: Games 3 (2012) 1, pp. 30-40
This paper addresses the role of affect and emotions in shaping the behavior of responders in the ultimatum game. A huge amount of research shows that players do not behave in an economically rational way in the ultimatum game, and emotional mechanisms have been proposed as a possible...

Achieving perfect coordination amongst agents in the co-action minority game
Rajpal, Hardik; Dhar, Deepak - In: Games 9 (2018) 2/27, pp. 1-13
We discuss the strategy that rational agents can use to maximize their expected long-term payoff in the co-action minority game. We argue that the agents will try to get into a cyclic state, where each of the (2N+1) agents wins exactly N times in any continuous stretch of (2N+1) days. We propose...
