Ultimatum Game Case Study

136 Words1 Page

Ultimatum games have produced key evidence that people behave altruistic as they are supposed to do. The game looks at two players bargaining for a piece of share. Player 1 is the proposer and player 2, is the responder. Player 1 offers a division of the share. Player can either accept the proposal in which both the players split the amount accepted from the proposal, or reject the proposal in which they both receive nothing. Player 1 is expected to offer the lowest amount possible. Experiments on ultimatum games have shown that proposers often offer a quite huge amount than the smallest amount possible and responders often reject the offer. The responder might feel that the offer was unfair and would rather forgo the amount being offered.

  • Why Is Game Theory Important

    1571 Words  | 7 Pages

    Game Theory Game theory is a branch of economic theory that studies strategic interaction. It finds application in a broad variety of real life situations ranging from interpersonal interaction (e.g. kids playing rock-paper-scissor), through interaction of multinational companies (e.g. wars for market share of Coca-Cola Company and PepsiCo.) to interaction of blocs of states (such as the Western and Eastern bloc during the Cold War). Game theory has come to prominence during the WWII, when it was used as a means for studying military strategy of belligerent parties, and has remained one of the focal points of economic theory since then. The modern foundations of game theory, however, were laid already in 1920s by American physicist and mathematician John von Neumann who formalized some of the fundamental notions in this field.
