Strategic Delegation: An Experiment [PDF]
The RAND Journal of Economics, 2001 We examine the effects of strategic delegation in a simple ultimatum game experiment. We show that when the proposer uses a delegate, her share increases both when the delegate is optional or mandatory. This is true despite the fact that the delegate cannot be used as a commitment device. We also show that unobserved delegation by the responder reduces

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2005 We analyze a cheap talk game with partial commitment by the principal. We first treat the principal's commitment power as exogenous and then endogenize it in an infinitely repeated game. We characterize optimal decision making for any commitment power and show when it takes the form of threshold delegation—in which case the agent can make any decision
