Matching Donations Without Crowding Out? Some Theoretical Considerations, a Field, and a Lab Experiment

Adena, Maja - 2017

large-scale natural field experiment and a laboratory experiment. Similar to findings in the literature, conventional … matching for the same project results in partial crowding out in the field experiment and, as predicted, crowding out is … reduced under the novel matching scheme. The lab experiment provides more fine-tuned evidence for the change in crowding and …

More Effort with Less Pay : On Information Avoidance, Belief Design and Performance

Huck, Steffen - 2015

In a tedious real effort task, subjects know that their piece rate is either low or ten times higher. When subjects are informed about their piece rate realization, they adapt their performance. One third of subjects nevertheless forego this instrumental information when given the choice - and...

Strategic Delegation in Experimental Markets

Huck, Steffen; Müller, Wieland; Normann, Hans-Theo - 2021

In this experiment, we analyze strategic delegation in a Cournot duopoly. Owners can choose among two different …, while the second contract gives an additional sales bonus. Although theory predicts the second contract to be chosen, it is …

Stability of the Cournot Process : Experimental Evidence

Huck, Steffen; Normann, Hans-Theo; Oechssler, Joerg - 2004

We report results of a series of experiments designed to test the stability of the best reply process. With linear demand and cost functions, the process is stable if and only if there are less than three firms in the market. However, we find no experimental evidence of such instability in a...
