“…The model finds its conceptual origins in Lewis's (1969) work on signaling systems and builds on ideas from iterated best response models (Jäger 2007(Jäger , 2012Franke 2009) and more thoroughly probabilistic variants of them (Camerer et al 2004;Frank & Goodman 2012;Russell 2012). The crucial feature of our model is that it lets discourse participants communicate, not just about the world, but also about the language they are using (Bergen et al 2012(Bergen et al , 2014. From the speaker's perspective, this means that one's intentions in production are characterized in terms of both world information and linguistic information.…”

“…The pattern is similar for β, but the target becomes exchanging information about the language itself. If we set β = 0, then the agents places no value on communicating about the lexicon, and the model reduces to a variant of the lexical uncertainty model of Bergen et al (2014). As β rises, communicating about the language itself becomes more important.…”
