An eye-tracking study of feature-based choice in one-shot games
Devetag, Giovanna; Di Guida, Sibilla; Polonio, Luca - 2013
We analyze subjects' eye movements while they make decisions in a series of one-shot games. The majority of them perform a partial and selective analysis of the payoff matrix, often ignoring the payoffs of the opponent and/or paying attention only to specific cells. Our results suggest that...

When social norms and self-image conflict : a public good experiment with social comparison feedback
Kandul, Serhiy; Lanz, Bruno - 2018 - This version: August 2018
Social comparison feedback, i.e. informing people about the behavior of others, has been shown to influence prosocial behavior in many domains, including tax compliance and energy conservation. We argue that heterogeneity in people's (un)willingness to consult the corresponding information...

Playing with the good guys : a public good game with endogenous group formation
Brekke, Kjell Arne (contributor) - 2009
In public good games, voluntary contributions tend to start of high and decline as the game is repeated. If high contributors are matched, however, contributions tend to stay high. We propose a formalization predicting that high contributors will selfselect into groups committed to charitable...
