Budget processes: Theory and experimental evidence
This paper studies budget processes, both theoretically and experimentally. We compare the outcomes of bottom-up and top-down budget processes. It is often presumed that a top-down budget process leads to a smaller overall budget than a bottom-up budget process. Ferejohn and Krehbiel (1987) showed theoretically that this need not be the case. We test experimentally the theoretical predictions o...
متن کاملImitation - theory and experimental evidence
We introduce a generalized theoretical approach to study imitation and subject it to rigorous experimental testing. In our theoretical analysis we find that the different predictions of previous imitation models are due to different informational assumptions, not to different behavioral rules. It is more important whom one imitates rather than how. In a laboratory experiment we test the differe...

متن کاملOn-line diagnosis and uncertainty management using evidence theory––experimental illustration to anaerobic digestion processes
The on-line diagnosis is a key requirement in biological processes. This is particularly true in the case of wastewater treatment processes due to the composition of media, the requirements of operating conditions and the wide variety of possible disturbances that necessitate careful and constant monitoring of the processes. Moreover, because only partial information is available in an online c...
متن کاملChoosing Monetary Sequences: Theory and Experimental Evidence
Choosing Monetary Sequences: Theory and Experimental Evidence In this paper we formulate and investigate experimentally a model of how individuals choose between time sequences of monetary outcomes. The theoretical model assumes that a decision-maker uses, sequentially, two criteria to screen options. Each criterion only permits a decision between some pairs of options, while the other options ...
