An experiment on Nash implementation Cabrales, Antonio Charness, Gary Corchón, Luis Universitat Pompeu Fabra. Departament d'Economia i Empresa implementation experiments mechanisms leex Behavioral and Experimental Economics We perform an experimental test of Maskin's canonical mechanism for Nash implementation, using 3 subjects in non-repeated groups, as well as 3 outcomes, states of nature, and integer choices. We find that this mechanism succesfully implements the desired outcome a large majority of the time and an imbedded comprehension test indicates that subjects were generally able to comprehend their decision tasks. The performance can also be improved by imposing a fine on non designated dissidents. We offer some explanations for the imperfect implementation, including risk preferences, the possibilities that agents have for collusion, and the mixed strategy equilibria of the game. 2017-07-26T12:07:57Z 2017-07-26T12:07:57Z 1998-06-01 2017-07-23T02:06:45Z info:eu-repo/semantics/workingPaper https://econ-papers.upf.edu/ca/paper.php?id=300 Journal of Economic Behavior and Organization, 51, (2003), pp. 161-193, http://hdl.handle.net/10230/1229 eng Economics and Business Working Papers Series; 300 L'accés als continguts d'aquest document queda condicionat a l'acceptació de les condicions d'ús establertes per la següent llicència Creative Commons http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/ info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess application/pdf application/pdf
