Special Issue on Behavioral Game Theory and Economics

Behavioral game theory is concerned with the analysis of interactive strategic decisions and behavior using the methods of game theory, experimental economics, and experimental psychology. It has become an extremely useful tool for economists to analyze a wide range of economic issues (such as adverse selection, bargaining, competition, cooperation).

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring Behavioral Game Theory and Economics. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Ultimatum game
• Dictator game
• Incentives, consequences, and deception
• Group decisions
• Applications in experimental economics
• Applications in behavioral economics
• Applications in information economics
• Applications in industrial organization
• Applications in political economy
• Applications in evolutionary growth
• Applications in welfare economics

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

Please kindly specify the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title. The research field “Special Issue - Behavioral Game Theory and Economics” should be selected during your submission.
