Face-to-Face Lying – an experimental study in Sweden and Japan
Holm, Håkan J.; Kawagoe, Toshiji - Nationalekonomiska Institutionen, Ekonomihögskolan - 2008
This paper investigates face-to-face lying and beliefs associated with it. In experiments in Sweden and Japan, subjects answer questions about personal characteristics, play a face-to-face sender-receiver game and participate in an elicitation of lie-detection beliefs. The previous finding of...

Inefficiency in private value bargaining with naive players : an experimental study
Possajennikov, Alexandre; Saran, Rene - 2018
The paper reports on an experiment on two-player double-auction bargaining with private values. We consider a setting … no equilibrium achieving full efficiency. In the experiment, we vary the proportion of naive traders by introducing … computerized players. We find that full efficiency is not achieved in the experiment with or without naive traders, and efficiency …

Sequential Contests with Incomplete Information : Theory and Experimental Evidence
Brookins, Philip; Matros, Alexander; Tzachrista, Foteini - 2022
In this paper, we investigate behavior in two-player sequential-move contests with complete and incomplete information about the value of the prize, theoretically and experimentally. First, we describe a Bayesian equilibrium of a sequential contest in which both players have private prize...

Price formation in a sequential selling mechanism
Ivanova-Stenzel, Radosveta; Kröger, Sabine - 2005
This paper analyzes the trade of an indivisible good within a two-stage mechanism, where a seller first negotiates with one potential buyer about the price of the good. If the negotiation fails to produce a sale, a second 'price sealed' bid auction with an additional buyer is conducted. The...
