RE: Behavioral Game Theory: The Most Fruitful Direction For Future Research in The Area of Human Judgement and Decision Making
I am not really clear on what a behavioral game theory experiment looks like. Could you give a short example?
Consider these two posts (Don't worry, they are a lot shorter than this one. I am still surprised you actually read it):
In some sense, I could say behavioral game theory experiments are just game theory experiments while also taking into account more variables that could explain behavior and not just trying to explain human behavior as rational and selfish. In the experiments mentioned above, this extra variable is oxytocin which seems to be correlated with pro-social behaviors. One study alone does not prove the causality of oxytocin, but now there is a lot of literature proving the same correlation. So maybe there is indeed some causality.
