Communication-enhancing vagueness
Wood, Daniel H. - In: Games 13 (2022) 4, pp. 1-27
I experimentally investigate how vague language changes the nature of communication in a biased strategic information transmission game. Counterintuitively, when both precise and imprecise messages can be sent, in aggregate, senders are more accurate, and receivers trust them more than when only...

He, Haoran; Villeval, Marie-Claire - 2014
We compare inequality aversion in individuals and teams by means of both within- and between-subject experimental designs, and we investigate how teams aggregate individual preferences. We find that team decisions reveal less inequality aversion than individual initial proposals in team...

Collective intertemporal decisions and heterogeneity in groups
Glätzle-Rützler, Daniela; Lergetporer, Philipp; … - 2021
Many important intertemporal decisions are made by groups rather than individuals. What happens to collective decisions when there is internal conflict about the tradeoff between present and future has not been thoroughly investigated so far. We study experimentally the causal effect of group...

Testing for Heterogeneity of Preferences in Randomized Experiments : A Satisfaction-Based Approach Applied to Multiplayer Prisoners’ Dilemmas
Becchetti, Leonardo - 2016
We use experimental data from the “vote with the wallet” multiplayer prisoner's dilemma to investigate with a finite mixture approach the effect of a responsible purchase on players' satisfaction. We find clear-cut evidence of heterogeneity of preferences with two groups of players that...
