The choice of the agenda in labor negotiations : efficiency and behavioral considerations
Königstein, Manfred (contributor);  … - 2005
The labor economics literature has shown that the "efficient bargaining" model, in which wage and employment are … wage is determined via bargaining and employment determined subsequently and unilaterally by the firm. This paper reports … an experiment in which the choice of the bargaining agenda is endogenous within a noncooperative game. We find that …

Conditional cooperation on three continents
Kocher, Martin G.; Cherry, Todd; Kroll, Stephan; … - 2007
We show in a public goods experiment on three continents that conditional cooperation is a universal behavioral regularity. Yet, the number of conditional cooperators and the extent of conditional cooperation are much higher in the U.S.A. than anywhere else.

The framing of games and the psychology of strategic choice
Dufwenberg, Martin (contributor);  … - 2006
Psychological game theory can provide a rational choice explanation of framing effects; frames influence beliefs, and beliefs influence motivations. We explain this point theoretically, and explore its empirical relevance experimentally. In a 2×2-factorial framing design of one-shot public good...

I'll do it by myself as I knew it all along' : on the failure of hindsight-biased principals to delegate optimally
Danz, David; Hüber, Frank; Kübler, Dorothea; … - 2013
With the help of a simple model, we show that the hindsight bias can lead to ineffcient delegation decisions. This prediction is tested experimentally. In an online experiment that was conducted during the FIFA World Cup 2010 participants were asked to predict a number of outcomes of the ongoing...

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...

Do control questions influence behavior in experiments?
Roux, Catherine; Thöni, Christian - 2013
Outcomes and strategies shown in control questions prior to experimental play may provide subjects with anchors or induce experimenter demand effects. In a Cournot oligopoly experiment we explore whether control questions influence subjects' choices in initial periods and over the course of a...
