A dynamic Ellsberg urn experiment [Dataset]
Abstract Many theories of updating under ambiguity assume either dynamic consistency or consequentialism to underpin behaviorally the link between conditional and... -
Belief Elicitation: A Horse Race among Truth Serums [Dataset]
We pit non-incentivized introspection against five revealed preference mechanisms (“truth serums”) in the elicitation of beliefs in a simple two-player game. We measure the... -
