ネットワーク形成に対する関連均衡と実験

抄録

So far, it has been tried to explain the behavior on experimental subjects in experiments on network formation by a solution concept of the strict Nash equilibrium. In this paper, we consider the correlated equilibrium for network formation which is a solution concept based on stability in terms of expected payoff maximization assuming coordination or implicit agreement between players. To examine its validity, we conduct a laboratory experiment and try to explain the behavior of the experimental subjects. As a result of the experiment, we find that although the explanation by the strict Nash equilibrium is difficult, it is possible to explain by the correlated equilibrium or inequity aversion.
