Analyzing the optimal bidding behavior in ascending-bid auctions and second-price, sealed-bid auctions with independent private values, the authors show that expected utility maximizing behavior is equivalent to (1) dynamically consistent bidding in ascending-bid auctions; (2) the equivalence of...

In this article we study behaviorally consistent stopping rules in an unbounded search from a known distribution with no recall and with positive search cost. We show that if the searcher's preferences are quasi-convex in the probabilities, then behaviorally consistent search strategies in the...
