Introduction to Game Theory: A Behavioral Approach
Ideal for social science courses in game theory and research methods, Introduction to Game Theory: A Behavioral Approach explains basic game theory conceptsup to and including Bayesian Nash equilibriumusing results from laboratory experiments that examine how real people behave in standard modeled games. Working from the premise that the crux of game theory lies in thinking logically about a problem and formulating research questions based on theory, author Kenneth C. Williams takes a nontechnical, behavioral approach that is accessible to students with minimal math skills.
Incorporating a wide range of experiments with diverse designs, Introduction to Game Theory is also enhanced by numerous pedagogical features:
* Extensive problem sets, in-class experiments, and sample exams
* Numerical examples for all of the exercises
* Key terms and concepts for behavioral game theorywhich differ from those for standard game theoryand a glossary
* Supplemental lecture material and Internet resourcesonline games, videos, lectures, problems sets, exams, and experiments that students can participate in
