Research Abstract |
We studied people's actual behavior in communication with conflicting interests, using tools developed in game theory with boundedly rational agents. We focused on level-k model, which introduces hierarchy of rationality and tries to explain experimental data by the behavior of agents with relatively lower level of rationality. We find that, in cheap-talk game with private information as well as in centipede games, level-k model outperforms other models in explanatory power.
