Trust and Tracing game
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper introduces the Trust and Tracing game. The game is an operationalization of the Trader’s Predicament, a variation of the Prisoners Dilemma aimed at asynchronous, serial transactions of products with invisible attributes. This type of transactions places the buyer in a dilemma, because he either needs to trust his supplier or needs to trace the good to reveal its real attributes. The game facilitates research on governance mechanisms within the branch of economics called New Institutional Economics. The configuration allows for research on three levels of integration: netchains, firms and individuals.

Multi-Agent Model of Trust in a Human Game
Individual-level trust is formalized within the context of a multi-agent system that models human behaviour with respect to trust in the Trust and Tracing game. This is a trade game on commodity supply chains and networks, designed as a research tool and to be played by human players. The model of trust is characterised by its learning ability, its probabilistic nature, and how experience influ...
متن کاملAgent-Based Simulation of the Trust and Tracing Game for Supply Chains and Networks
This paper describes a multi-agent simulation model of the Trust And Tracing game. The Trust And Tracing game is a gaming simulation for human players, developed as a research tool for data collection on human behaviour in food supply chains with asymmetric information about food quality and food safety. Important issues in the game are opportunistic behaviour (deceit), trust and institutional ...
متن کاملModelling and Simulation of Selling and Deceit for the Trust and Tracing Game
Deceit is commonplace in trade. Understanding deceit is vital for detecting deceit, and for the design of governance mechanisms in trading to discourage deceit. This paper presents a number of observed regularities related to trust that are gained from human simulation games in supply networks. These regularities form the basis of models for deceit and sellers capable of cheating as presented i...
متن کاملIntroducing a mathematical model in supply chain with adding trust flow
These day, supply chains (SCs) have become more and more complicated and have extensively expanded and due to these complexities, the supply chain management (SCM) has encountered several uncertainties, and, as a result, trust and assurance between members in SCs has become essential for a successful SCM. Although trust is an inevitable component in nearly all fields in SCs, like cooperation, c...
متن کاملCheating in the Trust Game
A large experimental literature has investigated the determinants of trust using variants of the so called trust game. However, a lot of ambiguity remains regarding the definition of what one is trusting: one extreme view is that since there are no explicit promises or guarantees made in the trust game, cheating is not defined and therefore trust is not implied. We address this concern by askin...
