We report on an experiment investigating whether the Hayak Hypothesis (Smith, 1982) extends to the long run setting. We …

Experimental Markets were used to examine whether individual probability judgment biases affect market prices. This issue is important to accountants because users of accounting information (especially investors) face competitive market environments. The expectation was that it would be more...

We analyze competitive pressures in a sequence of auctions with a growing number of bidders, in a model that includes private and common valuations as special cases. We show that the key determinant of bidders' surplus (and implicitly auction revenue) is how the goods are distributed. In any...

We use laboratory experiments to compare allocation rules in uniform price divisible good auctions. “Standard” and “uniform” allocation rules admit different types of low-price equilibria, which are eliminated by a “hybrid” rule. We observe little evidence of revenue differences...

This paper reports a new and significant experimental demonstration that market participants adjust their bids towards the price observed in previous market periods when – by design – individuals’ values should not be affiliated with the market price. This demonstration implies that market...
