Games with multiple Nash equilibria are believed to be easier to play if players can communicate. We present a simple model of communication in games and investigate the importance of when communication takes place. Sending a message before play captures talk about intentions, after play...

It is commonly assumed that friendship should decrease strategic uncertainty in games involving tacit coordination …. However, this has never been tested on two "opposite poles" of coordination, namely, games of strategic complements and …

Social norms of cooperation are studied under several forms of communication. In an experiment, strangers could make public statements before playing a prisoner's dilemma. The interaction was repeated indefinitely, which generated multiple equilibria. Communication could be used as a tool to...

Friendship is commonly assumed to reduce strategic uncertainty and enhance tacit coordination. However, this assumption … has never been tested across two opposite poles of coordination involving either strategic complementarity or … substitutability. We had participants interact with friends or strangers in two classic coordination games: the stag hunt game, which …

Successful coordination is key for economic and societal wealth. The rich literature on the minimum-effort game (MEG …) has provided valuable insights into coordination, both theoretically and empirically. Yet, although real-world scenarios … often involve asymmetric benefits and/or costs from coordination, most previous studies rely on symmetric MEGs. We …
