An experimental game to examine pastoralists' preferences for human–lion coexistence strategies
People and Nature, 2022 Reconciling conflicts between wildlife conservation and other human activities is a pervasive, multifaceted issue. Large carnivores, such as the African lion Panthera leo are often the focus of such conflicts as they have significant ecological and ...

Incentive Magnitude Effects in Experimental Games: Bigger is not Necessarily Better
Games, 2018 In experimental games, task-related incentives are payments to experimental subjects that vary according to their strategy choices and the consequent outcomes of the games.

Stationary Concepts for Experimental 2x2-Games [PDF]
American Economic Review, 2008 Five stationary concepts for completely mixed 2x2-games are experimentally compared: Nash equilibrium, quantal response equilibrium, action-sampling equilibrium, payoff-sampling equilibrium (Martin J. Osborne and Ariel Rubinstein 1998), and impulse balance equilibrium. Experiments on 12 games, 6 constant sum games, and 6 nonconstant sum games were run

An Experimental Bribery Game [PDF]
Journal of Law, Economics, and Organization, 2000 Essential characteristics of corruption are (1) a reciprocity relationship between briber and public official, (2) negative external effects to others, and (3) high penalties for the parties involved in case of discovery. We separate the behavioural influences of these factors in a laboratory experiment.

Games for groundwater governance: field experiments in Andhra Pradesh, India
Ecology and Society, 2016 Groundwater is a common-pool resource that is subject to depletion in many places around the world as a result of increased use of irrigation and water-demanding cash crops. Where state capacity to control groundwater use is limited, collective action is

Game Theory and Reciprocity in Some Extensive Form Experimental Games [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1996 We examine decision making in two-person extensive form game trees using nine treatments that vary matching protocol, payoffs, and payoff information. Our objective is to establish replicable principles of cooperative versus noncooperative behavior that involve the use of signaling, reciprocity, and backward induction strategies, depending on the ...

Exposure to Hedione Increases Reciprocity in Humans
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2017 Cooperation among unrelated humans is frequently regarded as a defining feature in the evolutionary success of our species. Whereas, much research has addressed the strategic and cognitive mechanisms that underlie cooperation, investigations into ...
