Taking Punishment into Your Own Hands: An Experiment
Duersch, Peter; Müller, Julia - Tinbergen Instituut - 2013
In a punishment experiment, we separate the demand for punishment in general from the demand to conduct punishment …

Equilibrium Selection in Experimental Cheap Talk Games
Ruiz, Adrian de Groot; Offerman, Theo; Onderstal, Sander - Tinbergen Instituut - 2015
In the past, many refinements have been proposed to select equilibria in cheap talk games. Usually, these refinements were motivated by a discussion of how rational agents would reason in some particular cheap talk games. In this paper, we propose a new refinement and stability measure that is...

Information and Strategic Voting
Tyszler, Marcelo; Schram, Arthur - Tinbergen Institute - 2011
We theoretically and experimentally study voter behavior in a setting characterized by plurality rule and mandatory voting, where voters choose from three options. We are interested in the occurrence of strategic voting in an environment where Condorcet cycles may occur. In particular, we focus...

Behaviorally Rational Expectations and Almost Self-Fulfilling Equilibria
Hommes, Cars - Tinbergen Instituut - 2013
Rational expectations assumes perfect, model consistency between beliefs and market realizations. Here we discuss behaviorally rational expectations, characterized by an observable, parsimonious and intuitive form of consistency between beliefs and realizations. We discuss three case-studies....

Reflexivity, Expectations Feedback and almost Self-fulfilling Equilibria: Economic Theory, Empirical Evidence and Laboratory Experiments
Hommes, Cars - Tinbergen Instituut - 2013
We discuss recent work on bounded rationality and learning in relation to Soros' principle of reflexivity and stress the empirical importance of non-rational, almost self-fulfilling equilibria in positive feedback systems. As an empirical example, we discuss a behavioral asset pricing model with...
