This paper reports results from a laboratory experiment on network formation among heterogeneous agents. The … experimental design extends the Bala-Goyal (2000) model of network formation with decay and two-way flow of benefits by allowing … private information. In all treatments, the (efficient) equilibrium network has a "star" structure. With homogeneous agents …
