The Dual-Role Method and Ultimatum Game Performance
نویسنده
چکیده
The dual-role method (DRM) extracts subject preferences as two players in experimental economic games. Previous research indicates mixed effects of DRM on game performance. A two (role)-by-two (role order) design for the ultimatum game (UG) was implemented in a naturalistic setting across 2 years. Subjects played according to the role they were assigned (proposer or responder). Immediately after, they played as the other role. Metaanalyses show no mean effect of role order on performance across studies or between laboratory and naturalistic settings. Power analyses indicate sample sizes needed to find an effect using the DRM is larger than many small-scale populations.

Testosterone Administration Related Differences in Brain Activation during the Ultimatum Game
A plethora of studies on the Ultimatum Game have shown that responders forfeit the rule of profit maximization and punish unfair proposers, by rejecting their offers. This behavior has been linked to increased amygdala, insula, and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex activation. Studies have suggested a potential role of testosterone in the Ultimatum Game albeit with inconsistent findings. In the pr...
متن کاملHeartbeat and Economic Decisions: Observing Mental Stress among Proposers and Responders in the Ultimatum Bargaining Game
The ultimatum bargaining game (UBG), a widely used method in experimental economics, clearly demonstrates that motives other than pure monetary reward play a role in human economic decision making. In this study, we explore the behaviour and physiological reactions of both responders and proposers in an ultimatum bargaining game using heart rate variability (HRV), a small and nonintrusive techn...
متن کاملCooperative Agent Systems: Artificial Agents Play the Ultimatum Game
We explore computational approaches for artificial agents to play the ultimatum game. We compare our agents’ behavior with that predicted by classical game theory, as well as behavior found in experimental (or behavioral) economics investigations. In particular, we study the following questions: How do artificial agents perform in playing the ultimatum game against fixed rules, dynamic rules, a...

Due to its role in the identification of inefficient branches and deciding the consistency of their activities, evaluating the performance of a bankchr('39')s branches is one of the most important decisions in the field of development and regulation of branch network. In this paper, the satisfactory functions based on game theory strategies have been utilized in order to evaluate the individual...
متن کاملIncidental sadness biases social economic decisions in the Ultimatum Game.
Recent dual-process models of decision making have suggested that emotion plays an important role in decision making; however, the impact of incidental moods (i.e., emotions unrelated to the immediate situation) on decisions remains poorly explored. This question was investigated by inducing 2 basic emotional states (amusement or sadness) that were compared with a neutral-emotion control group....
