z-Tree: Zurich toolbox for ready-made economic experiments
TLDR
Z-Tree as mentioned in this paper is a toolbox for ready-made economic experiments, which allows programming almost any kind of experiments in a short time and is stable and easy to use.Abstract:
z-Tree (Zurich Toolbox for Ready-made Economic Experiments) is a software for developing and conducting economic experiments. The software is stable and allows programming almost any kind of experiments in a short time. In this article, I present the guiding principles behind the software design, its features, and its limitations.read more

Fungibility, Labels, and Consumption
Johannes Abeler,Felix Marklein +1 more
TL;DR: The authors found that even in a simple, incentivized setup many subjects do not treat money as fungible, and when a label is attached to a part of their budget, subjects change consumption according to the label.

Why factors facilitating collusion may not predict cartel occurrence — experimental evidence
TL;DR: In this paper, the payoff gain from communication increases with the number of firms, at a decreasing rate, and the number does not significantly affect outcomes with communication, while without communication, the payoff gains increase.

The impact of different incentive schemes on asset prices
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate the impact of four trader incentive schemes (i.e., bonus, with cap, linear, and penalty) on asset prices and trader behavior.

Does Team Telecommuting Affect Productivity? An Experiment
TL;DR: In this paper, a controlled experiment was conducted to test whether telecommuters are more likely to free-ride when in teams and whether or not the locational composition of the team influences this outcome.

Group Identity and Relation-Specific Investment: An Experimental Investigation
Hodaka Morita,Maroš Servátka +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conjecture that group identity increases the degree of altruism towards another group member, and this in turn helps resolve the hold-up problem, and they test this conjecture in a laboratory experiment.

A simple mechanism for the efficient provision of public goods - experimental evidence
TL;DR: In this paper, a series of experiments designed to investigate the factor of incentive mechanisms in the case of private provisions of public goods is presented. But the results showed that the proposed incentive mechanism is very promising.
