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

The Effect of Cognitive Load on Economic Decision Making
Cary Deck,Salar Jahedi +1 more
TL;DR: This article found that cognitive load leads to more risk-averse behavior, more impatience over money, and (nominally) more likelihood to anchor, and found that those individuals who are most sensitive to cognitive load, as measured by a large drop in their own math performance across 1 and 8-digit memorization treatments, are driving much of the effect.

Gender pairing and bargaining—Beware the same sex!
Matthias Sutter,Matthias Sutter,Ronald Bosman,Martin G. Kocher,Martin G. Kocher,Frans van Winden +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of gender and gender pairing on economic decision making in an experimental two-person bargaining game where the other party's gender is known to both actors was studied.

Emissions variability in tradable permit markets with imperfect enforcement and banking
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify important interactions between banking, compliance and enforcement in emissions trading and show that noncompliance and emissions are significantly greater when banking is allowed, while price stability comes at a cost.

Signaling in deterministic and stochastic settings
TL;DR: In the stochastic variant of the signaling game, there is more signaling behavior than with deterministic signals, and less frequent types distort their signals relatively more, and the degree of congruence between equilibrium and subject behavior is greater in Stochastic settings compared to deterministic treatments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Habits of Virtue: Creating Norms of Cooperation and Defection in the Laboratory
TL;DR: This paper found that subjects from environments that support cooperation are more prosocial, more likely to punish selfishness, and more generally trusting than those who do not support cooperation, suggesting that intuitive processes play a key role in the spillover.

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.
