Myopically Forward-Looking Agents in a Network Formation Game: Theory and Experimental Evidence [PDF]
A population of players is considered in which each agent can select her neighbors in order to play a 2x2 Hawk-Dove game with each of them. We design our experiment in continuous time where participants may change their Hawk-Dove action and/or their ...
