Indenture as a Commitment Device in Self-Enforced Contracts: An Experimental Test [PDF]
How can a principal (an agent) ensure that an agent (a principal) will work (pay up), if payment (work) precedes work (payment)? When a banknote is torn in two, each part is by itself worthless.

Experimental Study on the Decision Making process in a Centipede Game. [PDF]
, 2019 The studys objective was to measure the somatic state response (skin conductance and heart rate) and understand thedecision making processes in a two-player Centipede game, an extensive form game, with a modified payoff. The experi-ment included fixed and random termination for analyzing the effect of players mutual trust on risk-taking behavior ...

Are Groups more Rational than Individuals? A Review of Interactive Decision Making in Groups [PDF]
Many decisions are interactive; the outcome of one party depends not only on its decisions or on acts of nature but also on the decisions of others. In the present article, we review the literature on decision making made by groups of the past 25 years ...

A critical analysis of the centipede game
, 2014 The centipede game is one of the clearest examples of the paradox of backward induction. Such paradox happens when, in a sequential game, the unique perfect Nash equilibrium prediction implies a very counterintuitive play. Experimental tests of the centipede games confirm this contradiction: individuals do not follow the subgame perfect equilibrium ...

Billiards and Brains: Cognitive Ability and Behavior in a p-Beauty Contest [PDF]
"Beauty contests" are well-studied, dominance-solvable games that generate two interesting results. First, most behavior does not conform to the unique Nash equilibrium. Second, there is considerable unexplained heterogeneity in behavior.
