Bidding Behavior under Costly Information Acquisition: an Experimental Study
This paper presents the results of an experiment on the economics of endogenous information acquisition. The experiment consists of a series of auctions where subjects compete for an object with private but unknown value. The information regarding the value of the object is costly. The experiment tests a theoretical model of bidding equilibrium and analyzes the effects of variations in the para...
متن کاملAn Experimental Study of Collective Deliberation
We study the e¤ects of deliberation on collective decisions. In a series of experiments, we vary groupspreference distributions (between common and conicting interests) and the institutions by which decisions are reached (simple majority, two-thirds majority, and unanimity). Without deliberation, di¤erent institutions generate signi cantly di¤erent outcomes, tracking the theoretical comparati...
متن کاملCollective Classification Techniques: An Experimental Study
Collective classification is the area in machine learning, in which unknown nodes in the network are classified based on the classes assigned to the known nodes and the network structure only. Three collective classification algorithms were described and examined in the paper: Iterative Classification (ICA), Gibbs Sampling (GS) and Loopy Belief Propagation (LBP). Experiments on various networks...
متن کاملPrivacy and Information Markets: An Experimental Study
In this paper we create an experimental ‘information market’ where consumers can trade in potentially useful personal information. We study how a market where trade in information takes place compares experimentally with a market where there is no trade in information. We test the impact of trading in information and the impact of stricter privacy laws on consumers and sellers, and also the imp...
متن کاملInformation Targeting and Coordination: An Experimental Study
In this study we explore the role of information targeting and its effect on coordination in a multi-threshold public goods game. We consider four treatments, three in which we give feedback about other members‟ contributions to a subsample of group members and another treatment in which feedback is not provided at all. Our three information treatments vary in whom receives the information, whi...
