We introduce a new method for measuring the decision to lie in experiments. In the game, the decision to lie increases own payment independent of the counterpart's decision, but potentially at a cost for the counterpart. We identify at the individual level the decision to lie, and measure how...

Are people blamed for being pivotal if they implement an unpopular outcome in a sequential voting process? We conduct … an experimental voting game and analyze how pivotality affects responsibility attribution by parties who can be … negatively affected by the voting outcome. We measure responsibility attribution by assigned punishment points and find that …

In this paper we experimentally test strategic information transmission between one informed and two uninformed agents in a cheap-talk game. We find evidence of the "disciplining" effect of public communication as compared to private; however, it is much weaker than predicted by the theory....
