We conduct dictator-type games in rural Paraguay; different treatments involve manipulating players’ information and choice sets. From individuals’ choices in the games, we draw inferences regarding impediments to efficient risk sharing in the larger village supergame. Outcomes from the experimental games suggest that players in most villages are reacting to the kinds of incentives that we would predict from a private information model with hidden investments, while in others players act in a manner consistent with the predictions of a model with limited commitment. No single one of our models can explain outcomes in all villages, but outcomes in nearly every village are consistent with one or more of our models.

区分巴拉圭农村摩擦风险分担模型的结构实验

我们在巴拉圭农村进行独裁者类型的游戏;不同的处理涉及操纵玩家的信息和选择集。从个人在博弈中的选择,我们得出关于在更大的村庄超级博弈中有效分担风险的障碍的推论。实验游戏的结果表明,大多数村庄的玩家正在对我们从具有隐藏投资的私人信息模型预测的激励类型做出反应,而在其他村庄,玩家的行为方式与承诺有限的模型的预测一致。我们没有一个模型可以解释所有村庄的结果,但几乎每个村庄的结果都与我们的一个或多个模型一致。
