Abstract:

The issues explored in this thesis concerns public good games. We tackle the topic from di erent prospectives focusing on leadership and cooperation. Each chapter considers public good games from di erent angles. In the first chapter, we analyse reference dependent agents (that use a reference point to determine their choices) and standard agents who interact in simultaneous or in sequential public good situations. The second chapter consists of a sequential repeated public good experiment where subjects participate to a competitive mechanism to become leader in a group. Finally, in the third

Abstract:

Includes bibliographical references.<br>This thesis contributes to the economics of climate change by incorporating insights from behavioural economics. As both mitigation and adaptation are components of any climate change strategy, the four papers presented here use laboratory and field experiments to examine different dimensions of individuals' mitigation and adaptive behaviour. The papers in Section 1 utilise framed public good games to focus on two different aspects of the public goods dilemma synonymous with climate change mitigation. In this context, the first paper 'What is fair?

Abstract:

In this paper, we propose and develop a model for a prototype research tool based on a social dilemma game which use is widely spread in social psychology and experimental economics, the Public Goods Game. This tool generates from the necessity to expand the accessibility and versatility of this popular game as well as reach for newer audiences that might be otherwise deterred by the traditional Public Goods Game. Also, using this tool, we perform an experiment to try to find a possible preference towards either punishment or reward in the current population and find a possible correlation bet

Abstract:

Cooperation is acting in the interests of one’s social group, often at a cost to yourself. When the level of cooperation is observed in the laboratory, people cooperate more often, and at higher levels than are predicted by standard theories. In this thesis I find two novel ways in which cooperation on multilayered populations is increased. These models contribute to an understanding of how people cooperate in real-world social situations, and help us to explain why people cooperate as much as they are observed to do. In each study I model the tension between the individual and the group using

In Agent-based Modelling and Simulation (ABMS), a system is modelled as a collection of agents, which are autonomous decision-making units with diverse characteristics. The interaction of the individual behaviours of the agents results in the global behaviour of the system. Because ABMS offers a methodology to create an artificial society in which actors with their behaviour can be designed and results of their interaction can be observed, it has gained attention in social sciences such as Economics, Ecology, Social Psychology, and Sociology. In Economics, ABMS has been used to model many stra

My study also indicates that by framing the game as climate negotiations there were no statistical significant difference on the level of contributions in comparison to the unframed versions of the game.

Abstract:

A proposed approach to avoiding the tragedy of the commons involves a public goods scenario in which players may join a coalition whose members contribute to the public good only when it is in the best interest of the group as a whole. Theoretical analysis of this scenario predicts a constant coalition size, regardless of the number of players vying for the public good. Here, a laboratory experiment is proposed to examine the relationship between number of players and number of coalition members in a coalition game based on this scenario. Two hypotheses will be tested: (1) The number of coalit

Abstract:

Cooperation in joint enterprises poses a social dilemma. How can altruistic behavior be sustained if selfish alternatives provide a higher payoff? This social dilemma can be overcome by the threat of sanctions. But a sanctioning system is itself a public good and poses a second-order social dilemma. In this paper, we show by means of deterministic and stochastic evolutionary game theory that imitation-driven evolution can lead to the emergence of cooperation based on punishment, provided the participation in the joint enterprise is not compulsory. This surprising result - cooperation can be en

While punishment ought to deter transgressions and promote cooperative behavior, internal neural reward-related systems seem to be a driving factor of the desire to punish wrongdoings.

Overall, contribution does not converge to zero, nor does it decrease over time, and subjects are very contributive in nature.

Several experimental studies show that ex post communication mitigates opportunistic behavior in social dilemmas.

The other involves emotions induced by others' expressed disapproval. The presence of ex post communication strongly fosters pro-social behavior.

BACKGROUND: Today’s societal changes, including high rate of change and increasing information flows, are increasing the demand on the individual mental capacity. It becomes increasingly difficult to analytically process all the different dilemmas and everyday decisions as individuals have a limited mental capacity available to make these decisions. Thus, it has been suggested that ego-depleted relies more heavily on intuition, which is less burdensome, when making decision. However little is known about to what extent intuitive decisions differ from analytic. Are ego-depleted individuals more

In the first case the volatility of the diffusion term is dependent on the current level of public good, while in the second case the volatility is dependent on the current rate of public good provision by the agents.

Abstract:

Cette thèse vise analyser les déterminants (objectifs et subjectifs) à l’origine de l'hétérogénéité des évaluations de projets. Dans un premier temps, j'analyserai comment les quantités (objectives) sont incorporées dans l'analyse coût-bénéfice. Le premier chapitre principal traite de la manière dont l'analyse coût-bénéfice est affectée par la distribution temporelle des impacts considérée. À travers l'exemple du changement d'affectation des terres provenant de la production de biocarburants, il ressort que les décisions concernant les projets ayant des impacts environnementaux non constants d

Abstract:

Nous capturons la décision de contribuer volontairement au bien public en groupe restreint et important, en nous basant sur un classique de l’économie expérimentale. Contrairement aux prévisions, la décision dépend négativement du rendement du bien public en groupe important. Les joueurs percevraient l’enjeu comme faible. La décision dépend positivement, mais trop fragilement, du nombre de bénéficiaires du bien public en groupe restreint et n’en dépend pas en groupe important. La décision dépend toujours négativement de l’avancement du jeu, mais sans convergence vers la stratégie dominante. Le

Probably selective pressures brought advantages to individuals that cooperate, and then this behavior is current in human societies. Most of it is studied about cooperation and natural selection was understood by the game theory, a mathematical approach that helps to understand the conflict and cooperation.
