Economics 142 : Behavioral Game Theory Winter 2008

چکیده
Many strategic situations in business, international relations, politics, or war are well approximated by games. A game is a multi-person decision situation, defined by its structure: the players, its “rules” (the order of players’ decisions, their feasible decisions at each point, and the information they have when making them); how players’ decisions determine the outcome; and players’ preferences over outcomes.

Analysis of the Evolutionary Game Theory in Agent-Based Computational Systems: OPEC Oil-Producing Countries
This study suggests a new method for analysing the behavioral economics issues in the framework of game theory. In this context, bounded rational agents interact with one another in a strategic manner. Therefore, conventional economic modeling techniques are unable to explaine this kind of interactions. In this regard, evolutionary game theory and agent-based modeling are known as the most suit...
متن کاملA game theory approach to the Iranian forest industry raw material market
Dynamic game theory is applied to analyze the timber market in northern Iran as a duopsony. The Nash equilibrium and the dynamic properties of the system based on marginal adjustments are determined. When timber is sold, the different mills use mixed strategies to give sealed bids. It is found that the decision probability combination of the different mills follow a special form of attractor an...
متن کاملDepth of Reasoning and Higher Order Beliefs
As demonstrated by the email game of Rubinstein (1989), the predictions of the standard equilibrium models of game theory are sensitive to assumptions about the fine details of the higher order beliefs. This paper shows that models of bounded depth of reasoning based on level-k thinking or cognitive hierarchy make predictions that are independent of the tail assumptions on the higher order beli...
متن کاملReciprocal Preference Model for Two Player Dilemma Games
Results from behavioral economics show that individuals do not always maximize monetary payoffs. Within behavioral economics different models of social preference have been put forth to account for this deviation from standard assumptions of game theory and economics. Incorporating such models into agent decision making is increasingly relevant to design systems which interact with or on behalf...
متن کاملWho are the Behavioral Economists and what do they say?
The most important financial source for behavioral economics is the Russell Sage Foundation (RSF). The most prominent behavioral economists among the RSF’s twentysix member Behavioral Economics Roundtable (BER) are Kahneman, Tversky, Thaler, Camerer, Loewenstein, Rabin, and Laibson. The theoretical core of behavioral economics made up of the work of these seven researchers is positioned in oppo...
