We propose a new paradigm to study coordination in complex social systems, such as financial markets, that accounts for fundamental uncertainty. This new context has features from prediction markets that have been shown previously to mitigate price bubbles in classical asset market experiments....

We experimentally study a situation in which two players negotiate the dissolution of a partnership. In our experiments, the valuation from owning the partnership is risky and subjects must simultaneously negotiate both a selling price and the identity of the buyer. That is, upon reaching an...

How is one's cognitive ability related to the way one responds to strategic uncertainty? We address this question by conducting a set of experiments in simple 2 x 2 dominance solvable coordination games. Our experiments involve two main treatments: one in which two human subjects interact, and...
