Signaling in deterministic and stochastic settings
Jeitschko, Thomas D.; Normann, Hans-Theo - 2011
We contrast a standard deterministic signaling game with one where the signal-generating mechanism is stochastic. With stochastic signals a unique equilibrium emerges that involves separation and has intuitive comparative-static properties as the degree of signaling depends on the prior type...
