摘要 | We propose and experimentally test a theory of strategic behavior in which players encode and process game payoffs with cognitive noise. We focus on 2 x 2 coordination games that have multiple equilibria under complete information. Introducing cognitive noise generates a unique equilibrium. The model further predicts stochastic and context-dependent behavior: as volatility in the environment declines, perception of payoffs becomes less noisy and thus, actions become more sensitive to payoffs. Context-dependence arises from an efficient use of limited cognitive resources. Our experimental data strongly support these predictions and reject a broad class of theories that do not predict context-dependence. |
