Intergenerational Fairness in a Sequential Dictator Game With Social Interaction
, 2007
"... We modify the traditional dictator game by introducing 3 generations A, B and C. A takes an arbitrary share of a pie and passes the rest to B. B divides the rest of the pie between her and C. We find that this sequential dictator game increases generosity with respect to comparable traditional dicta ..."

Fairness in an Intergenerational . . .
, 2008
"... Experimental evidence indicates that non-monetary considerations influence subjects’ allocation behavior. We investigate the impact of a multigeneration setup on allocation behavior. We modify the traditional dictator game by introducing 3 generations A, B and C. A takes an arbitrary share of a pie ..."

We find that this intergenerational dictator game increases generosity with respect to comparable traditional dictator games. Introducing a social interaction between A and B on the one hand and B and C on the other hand leads to a
What’s in a Name? Anonymity and Social Distance in Dictator and Ultimatum Games
, 2000
"... The standard procedure in experimental economics maintains anonymity among laboratory participants. Yet, many field interactions are conducted with neither complete anonymity nor complete familiarity. When we are involved in interactive situations in the field, we usually have some clues concerning ..."

the standard procedure of playing dictator and ultimatum games with the same games played by participants who knew the family name of their counterparts. When these names were revealed, dictators allocated a significantly larger portion of the pie. However, this information had no significant effect

"... The acquisition of soccer skills is fundamental to our enjoyment of the game and is essential to the attainment of expertise. Players spend most of their time in practice with the intention of improving technical skills. However, there is a lack of scientific research relating to the effective acqui ..."

acquisition of soccer skills, especially when compared with the extensive research base on physiological aspects of performance. Current coaching practice is therefore based on tradition, intuition and emulation rather than empirical evidence. The aim of this review is to question some of the popular beliefs
In Search of Homo Economicus: Behavioral Experiments in 15 Small-Scale Societies
- American Economic Review

and our collaborators undertook a large cross-cultural study of behavior in ultimatum, public good, and dictator games. Twelve experienced field researchers, working in 12 countries on five continents, recruited subjects from 15 small-scale societies exhibiting a wide variety of economic and cultural
The Role of Role Uncertainty in Modified Dictator Games∗
, 2008
"... We compare behavior in modified dictator games with and without role uncertainty. Subjects choose between a selfish action, a costly surplus creating action (altruistic behavior) and a costly surplus destroying action (spiteful behavior). While costly surplus creating actions are the most frequent u ..."

The Digitization of Word-of-Mouth: Promise and Challenges of Online Reputation Systems
, 2001
"... Online reputation mechanisms are emerging as a promising alternative to more traditional trust building mechanisms, such as branding and formal contracting, in settings where the latter may be ineffective or prohibitively expensive; a lot of electronic trading communities fall under these categories ..."

Learning to Cooperate via Policy Search
, 2000
"... Cooperative games are those in which both agents share the same payoff structure. Valuebased reinforcement-learning algorithms, such as variants of Q-learning, have been applied to learning cooperative games, but they only apply when the game state is completely observable to both agents. Poli ..."

. Policy search methods are a reasonable alternative to value-based methods for partially observable environments. In this paper, we provide a gradient-based distributed policysearch method for cooperative games and compare the notion of local optimum to that of Nash equilibrium. We demonstrate
