We present a model of boundedly rational play in single-shot 2 × 2 games. Players choose strategies based on the perceived salience of their own payoffs and, if own-payoff salience is uninformative, on the perceived salience of their opponent's payoffs. When own payoffs are salient, the model's...

In this work, I extend the normal form cognitive hierarchy model (Camerer et al. (2004)) to a class of finite two-person extensive form games. I study two versions of such a model: the first is as faithful as possible to the normal form assumptions, while the second modifies them slightly. In...

We develop a tractable framework incorporating ambiguity aversion into rational inattention. We model uncertainty using smooth ambiguity (Klibanoff, Marinacci, and Mukerji, 2005) and define entropy-based information costs on the predictive prior distribution, which allows us to rewrite the...
