We report the findings of experiments designed to study how people learn in network games. Network games offer new opportunities to identify learning rules, since on networks (compared to, e.g., random matching) more rules differ in terms of their information requirements. Our experimental...

Frauen sind im Durchschnitt seltener bereit, in Wettbewerb mit anderen Personen zu treten als Männer. Dieser Gender Gap in der Neigung zu konkurrieren ist einer von vielen Gründen für Unterschiede in den Bildungs- und Karriereentscheidungen von Frauen und Männern und für weitere Gender Gaps...

Women are less willing than men to compete against others. This gender gap can partially explain the differences between women's and men's education and career choices, and the labor market disparities that result. The experiments presented here show that even though women are less willing than...
