Attempting to Detect a Lie: Do We Think it Through?
Grabova, Iuliia; Nielsen, Hedda; Weizsäcker, Georg - 2023
Game-theoretic analyses of communication rely on beliefs – especially, the receiver's belief about the truth status of an utterance and the sender's belief about the reaction to the utterance – but research that provides measurements of such beliefs is still in its infancy. Our experiment...

Beliefs and truth-telling: A laboratory experiment
Peeters, Ronald; Vorsatz, Marc; Walzl, Markus - In: Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization 113 (2015) C, pp. 1-12
We conduct a laboratory experiment with a constant-sum sender–receiver game and a sequential game of matching pennies with the same payoff structure to investigate the impact of individuals’ first- and second-order beliefs on truth-telling. While first-movers in matching pennies choose an...

The Way People Lie in Markets: Detectable vs. Deniable Lies
Tergiman, Chloe; Villeval, Marie Claire - 2021
In a finitely repeated game with asymmetric information, we experimentally study how individuals adapt the nature of their lies when settings allow for reputation-building. While some lies can be detected ex post by the uninformed party, others remain deniable. We find that traditional market...

Achieving successful and long-lasting behavior change via nudging comes with challenges. This is particularly true when choice architects attempt to change behavior that is collectively harmful but individually beneficial, such as dishonesty. Here, we introduce the concept of 'meta-nudging' and...
