    Content: In Singapore and many Chinese cities, tens of thousands of people participate in car license auctions each month. In a car license auction, many car licenses are sold but each participant can only bid for one license. We examine the theoretical properties of three auction formats: Shanghai auction, Guangzhou auction, and Singapore auction. Our main results are that (1) No equilibrium of the Shanghai auction can guarantee an efficient allocation, (2) the Singapore auction allocates objects efficiently if and only if a unique market clearing price does not exist, and (3) the Guangzhou auction is efficient if bidders are symmetric. The experimental evidence confirms our theoretical prediction. Our experiment also shows that the learning effects over time are quite different among these auction formats

    Content: In recent literature, empirical evidence shows that cooperation improves when games are infinitely repeated. We experimentally investigate the evolution of voluntary contributions to a public good played over an infinite horizon. The experiment also includes sessions of voluntary contribution mechanism (VCM) games played over a finite horizon as a control. We find that in infinitely repeated VCM games (1) when subjects are inexperienced, there is no difference of contributions compared with finitely repeated games; (2) contributions remain at the same level after an unexpected restart; (3) most groups do not have a monotonic trend of contribution with repetition. The data provides strong support for heterogeneous subjects, which may explain the non-monotonic trend of average contributions in infinitely repeated VCM games. This non-monotonic trend is caused by one category of subjects who expect others to contribute in period t as they did in period t-1

    Content: We use laboratory experiments to examine the relative performance of the English auction (EA) and the first price sealed bid auction (FPA) when procuring a commodity. The mean and variance of prices are lower in the FPA than in the EA. Bids and prices in EA agree with game theoretic predictions while they don't in the FPA. To resolve these deviations found in the FPA, we introduce a mixture model with three bidding rules: constant absolute mark-up, constant percentage mark-up, and strategic best response. A dynamic specification in which bidders can switch strategies as they gain experienced is estimated as a hidden Markov model. Initially about three quarters of the subjects are strategic bidders, but over time the number of strategic bidders falls to below sixty-five percent. There is a corresponding growth in those who use the constant absolute mark-up rule

    Content: We present a hidden Markov model of discrete strategic heterogeneity and learning in first price independent private values auctions. The model includes three latent bidding rules: constant absolute mark-up, constant percentage mark-up, and strategic best response. Rule switching probabilities depend upon a bidder's past auction outcomes. We apply this model to a new experiment that varies the number of bidders, the auction frame between forward and reverse, and includes the collection of saliva samples - used to measure subjects' sex hormone levels. We find the proportion of bidders following constant absolute mark-up increases with experience, particularly when the number of bidders is large. The primary driver here is subjects' increased propensity to switch strategies when they experience a loss (win) reinforcement when following a strategic (heuristic) rule. This affect is stronger for women and leads them spend more time following boundedly rational rules. We also find women in the Luteal and Menstrual phases of their menstrual cycle bid less aggressively, in terms of surplus demanded, when following the best response rule. This combined with spending more time following simple rules of thumbs explains gender differences in earnings

    Content: We study the intergeneration transmission of physicians' economic preferences by examining the risk and altruistic preferences of medical students and one of their parents with incentivized experiments. We find that altruistic parents are more likely to raise altruistic children who are also more likely to choose a medical major in university. Additionally, the self-selection effect based on social preferences among physicians becomes more prominent in the aftermath of the pandemic. In contrast, we do not find a significant correlation between risk preferences within families or with occupational choices. We propose a theoretical framework capturing the intergeneration preference transmission and family-wise self-selection among (future) physicians. Lastly, we delve into the policy implications of our findings, offering insights into how intra-household support and risk-sharing mechanisms can help rectify the persistent market failure of inadequate labor supply in the medical industry
