Neuroscience and Competitive Behavior

, 2022
Abstract Cognitive and social neuroscience may provide a wide range of neuroscientific tools and paradigms for the research on competitive behavior. Specifically, hyperscanning is a relatively new paradigm in neuroscience that involves capturing the brain activity of two or more participants engaged in a joint task, such as a competitive

Modelling Competitive Behavior [PDF]

The RAND Journal of Economics, 1992
A single seller of an indivisible object wishes to sell the good to one of many buyers. The seller has zero value for the good, the buyers have a commonly known identical value of one. This article attempts to determine strategic environments that ensure the seller's ability to exploit the competitive behavior of the buyers to extract all the surplus ...

Competitive Behavior In The HMO Marketplace

Health Affairs, 2002
Are health maintenance organizations (HMOs) less profitable in more competitive markets, and does competition erode unusually high profits over time? To answer these questions, we examined profit rates (as a proportion of revenues) in 1994 and 1997 for all HMOs in 259 metropolitan areas. We found that profits were significantly lower on average in 1994

In groups of 39 male and 39 female undergraduates played a reaction-time game in which descriptions of a player's shock settings were constant or consistently below or above another player's; wins were varied. Ratings of aggression, offensiveness, positivity on semantic scales showed naive subjects considered the offensive or defensive nature of ...

Meeting the Competition: Commitment and Competitive Behavior

2012
In this paper, we represent 'meet the competition' guarantees as the endogenous outcome of a non-cooperative game. We model the phenomenon by assuming that firms compete in supply schedules in a two-stage process. We assume that the choice of a negatively sloped supply schedule is costly. In particular, we use Cournot behavior as a benchmark.

Competition in Optimal Stopping: Behavioral Insights

Manufacturing & Service Operations Management, 2022
Problem definition: We study settings where agents sequentially search among different options under competition. Motivated by labor markets and the allocation of kidneys from deceased donors, we focus on the effect of (i) the mechanism to collect decisions, that is, whether all agents make their decisions simultaneously or sequentially, and (ii ...

Streptomyces behavior and competition in the natural environment

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2023
Streptomyces are ubiquitous terrestrial bacteria that are renowned for their robust metabolic capabilities and their behavioral flexibility. In competing for environmental niches, these bacteria can employ novel growth and dispersal behaviors. They also wield their diverse metabolic repertoire for everything from maximizing nutrient uptake, to ...

Behavior, Production and Competition

2005
Previous studies have found underestimation of risk, or overconfidence, to be a key factor in entrepreneurship. We use a simple model of competitive equilibrium to show that an irrational under-estimation of risk provides a competitive advantage leading to a greater chance of survival under competitive pressures.
