On the Value of Participation: Endogenous Emergence of Social Norms in a Three-Player Ultimatum Game [PDF]
We report results from two different settings of a 3-player ultimatum game. Under the monocratic rule, a player is randomly selected to make an offer to two receivers. Under the democratic rule, all three players make a proposal, and one proposal is then

On the Behavior of Proposers in Ultimatum Games [PDF]
We demonstrate that one should not expect convergence of the proposals to the subgame perfect Nash equilibrium offer in standard ultimatum games. First, imposing strict experimental control of the behavior of the receiving players and focusing on the ...

Learning (Not) To Yield: An Experimental Study of Evolving Ultimatum Game Behavior [PDF]
Whether behavior converges toward rational play or fair play in repeated ultimatum games depends on which player yields first. If responders concede first by accepting low offers, proposers would not need to learn to offer more, and play would converge ...

The Evolution of Fairness under an Assortative Matching Rule in the Ultimatum Game [PDF]
This paper studies how a matching rule affects the evolution of fairness in an ultimatum mini game. Gale et al. [1995] show that only selfish behaviour survives in the deterministic replicator dynamics under the random matching rule.

Low Information Games - Experimental Evidence on Learning in Ultimatum Bargaining [PDF]

Culture, nationality and demographics in ultimatum games [PDF]
We use experimental data collected in Russia and in the United States using a simple ultimatum game to evaluate two alternative hypotheses that may account for previously observed behavior in multinational experiments.
