A decision maker (DM) makes choices from different sets of alternatives. The DM is initially fully ignorant of the payoff associated to each alternative, and learns these payoffs only after a large number of choices have been made. We show that, in the presence of an outside option once payoffs...

We study the potential evolutionary appeal of rationality in a model in which different populations differ with respect to their experimentation over rules of behavior. We show that more risky experimentation in the sense of mean preserving spread dominates less risky experimentation....

We study (interim correlated) rationalizability in a game with incomplete information. We characterize the recursive set of possible rationalizable hierarchies through a finite automaton and provide a revelation principle that characterizes the distributions over these hierarchies that arise...
