On price data elicitation: A laboratory investigation

The Price Precision Effect: Evidence from Laboratory and Market Data

W examine two questions: Does the roundness or precision of prices bias magnitude judgments? If so, do these biased judgments affect buyer behavior? Results from five studies suggest that buyers underestimate the magnitudes of precise prices. We term this the precision effect. The first three studies are laboratory experiments designed to test the existence of the precision effect and examine t...

A Data-Driven Technique for Misconception Elicitation

When a quantitative student model is constructed, one of the first tasks to perform is to identify the domain concepts assessed. In general, this task is easily done by the domain experts. In addition, the model may include some misconceptions which are also identified by these experts. Identifying these misconceptions is a difficult task, however, and one which requires considerable previous e...

Social Network Effects on Coordination A Laboratory Investigation

Does social network structure influence coordination? We examine a coordination game in which each player engages with an exogenously connected “local” subset of the player population, the pattern of links defining a social network. Players know the number of local links they possess but otherwise have incomplete information about the global network structure. All networks in our experiment hav...
