Group reciprocity
Hugh-Jones, David; Leroch, Martin A. - 2010
People exhibit group reciprocity when they retaliate, not against the person who harmed them, but against somebody else in that person's group. Group reciprocity may be a key motivation behind intergroup conflict. We investigated group reciprocity in a laboratory experiment. After a group...

More than words : communication in intergroup conflicts
Leibbrandt, Andreas; Sääksvuori, Lauri - 2010
Numerous studies suggest that communication may be a universal means to mitigate collective action problems. In this study, we challenge this view and show that the communication structure crucially determines whether communication mitigates or intensifies the problem of collective action. We...

Kirchkamp, Oliver; Vollstädt, Ulrike - 2012

Güth, Werner; Levati, M. Vittoria; Nardi, Chiara; … - 2014

Endogenous price leadership : a theoretical and experimental analysis
Güth, Werner; Pull, Kerstin; Stadler, Manfred; Zaby, … - 2013
We present a model of price leadership on homogeneous product markets where the price leader is selected endogenously. The price leader sets and guarantees a sales price to which followers can adjust according to their individual supply functions. The price leader then clears the market by...
