“…The outcome was essentially the same even after payoff efficient precedents emerged in a treatment (B) that was inserted between treatments A and A' for four out of six sessions. Several other experimenters -in baseline treatments for various modifications reported in those papers --replicated this unraveling result with the same payoff matrix, and with subject numbers varying from 6 -14 (e.g., Cachon and Camerer, 1996;Bornstein, Gneezy and Nagel, 2002;Blume and Ortmann, 2005;Chaudhuri, Schotter and Sopher, 2005). Other experimenters -also in baseline treatments for various modifications reported in those papers --chose structurally similar payoff matrices (e.g., linear deviation costs, no negative payoffs) with slightly more or less action choices (e.g., Berninghaus and Ehrhart, 1998;Knez and Camerer, 1994;Weber, Camerer, Rottenstreich and Knez, 2001;Brandts and Cooper, 2004, 2005a and also replicated this result.…”
