Continuous time and communication in a public-goods experiment

R Oprea, G Charness, D Friedman - Journal of Economic Behavior & …, 2014 - Elsevier
We investigate the nature of continuous time strategic interaction in public-goods games. In
one set of treatments, four subjects make contribution decisions in continuous time during a …

Value computation in humans

Things afford positive, neutral, or negative long-run effects on the replicative probability of
the focal individual's genes. At the most general level, values are internal estimates of those …

Time horizon and cooperation in continuous time

M Bigoni, M Casari, A Skrzypacz, G Spagnolo - Econometrica, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
We study social dilemmas in (quasi‐) continuous‐time experiments, comparing games with
different durations and termination rules. We discover a stark qualitative contrast in behavior …

An experimental investigation of stochastic adjustment dynamics

W Lim, PR Neary - Games and Economic Behavior, 2016 - Elsevier
This paper describes an experiment designed to test which, if any, stochastic adjustment
dynamic most accurately captures the behaviour of a large population. The setting is a large …

Continuity, inertia, and strategic uncertainty: A test of the theory of continuous time games

E Calford, R Oprea - Econometrica, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
The theory of continuous time games (Simon and Stinchcombe (1989), Bergin and MacLeod

A minimum effort coordination game experiment in continuous time

A Leng, L Friesen, K Kalayci, P Man - Experimental Economics, 2018 - Springer
We conduct an experiment on a minimum effort coordination game in a (quasi-) continuous
