In search of stars: network formation among heterogeneous agents
Goeree, Jacob K.; Riedl, Arno; Ule, Aljaz - 2005
This paper reports the results of a laboratory experiment on network formation among heterogeneous agents. The … experimental design extends the basic Bala-Goyal (2000) model of network formation with decay and two-way flow of benefits by … network has a star structure. We find that with homogeneous agents, equilibrium predictions fail completely. In contrast, with …

Determinants and Policy Simulation of Firms Cooperation in Innovation
Heshmati, Almas; Lenz-Cesar, Flávio - 2013
This research introduces an agent-based simulation model representing the dynamic processes of cooperative R&D in the manufacturing sector of South Korea. Firms' behavior is defined according to empirical findings on the Korean Innovation Survey 2005 and captured in a multivariate probit...

Efficient coordination in weakest-link games
Riedl, Arno; Rohde, Ingrid M. T.; Strobel, Martin - 2011
Existing experimental research on behavior in weakest-link games shows overwhelmingly the inability of people to coordinate on the efficient equilibrium, especially in larger groups. We hypothesize that people are able to coordinate on efficient outcomes, provided they have sufficient freedom to...

Children and Women's Participation Dynamics: Transitory and Long-Term Effects
Voicu, Alexandru; Buddelmeyer, Hielke - 2003
Children affect the after-birth labor force participation of women in two ways. Directly, the time spent in child-care reduces the labor market effort. The time spent out of the labor market while on maternity leave alters women's participation experience and, thus, indirectly affects subsequent...
