Social learning often occurs between groups with different levels of experience. Yet little is known about the ideal … novices learning from experienced, a particular form of probabilistic imitation is selected. Novices should imitate any …

We consider social learning in a changing world. With changing states, societies can remain responsive only if agents … regularly act upon fresh information, which drastically limits the value of observational learning. When the state is close to …

We analyze a game theoretic model of social learning about a consumption good with endogenous timing and heterogeneous …

exposure or experience can cause learning and hence better detection of deception. We investigate using data culled from events … individual from within a group all claiming to be that individual. Our sample showed evidence of learning, suggesting that …

This paper introduces a model of boundedly rational observational learning, which is rationally founded and applicable …

the 1-way flow model but fails largely in the 2-way flow model. We observe a strong learning dynamic in the 1-way flow …

Our study analyzes theories of learning for strategic interactions in networks. Participants played two of the 2 x 2 …

spectral graph theory and show that the consensus among agents is not always a sign of successful learning. In particular, the … presence of stubborn agents in the network and produces long-run effects on the agents learning process. The distortion induced … by stubborn agents in social learning depends on the “updating centrality”, a novel centrality measure that identifies …
