Bounded Rationality in Homogeneous Product Pricing Games
Session: C-1-18  Friday 11 August 2000  by Morgan, John
This paper applies two notions of bounded rationality to homogeneous product pricing games -- Radner's (1980) epsilon equilibrium and McKelvey and Palfrey's (1995) quantal response equilibrium. A variety of statistical tests, based on two different experimental data sets and structural estimates of the parameters of epsilon equilibrium and quantal response equilibrium, indicate that these theories organize the data significantly better than the Nash prediction.
