我们研究具有多重均衡的协调博弈,在这种博弈中,参与者如果选择的数字高于任何人选择的最小值,就会受到惩罚,并且每个人都喜欢更大的最小值。像这样的“薄弱环节”游戏模拟了一种组织情况,在这种情况下,产品或流程中最差的部分决定了其整体质量。在实验组中,很少达到最佳平衡。把两个群体聚集成一个更大的群体总是很痛苦。我们认为,球员的信念,什么是最低限度将是一个“预期资产”(或负债),这是社会复杂的,连接组织层面的行为和资源为基础的公司的看法。
We study coordination games with multiple equilibria, in which players are penalized for picking numbers higher than the minimum anybody picks, and everyone prefers a larger minimum. 'Weakest-link' games like this model organizational situations in which the worst component of a product or process determines its overall quality. In experimental groups, the best equilibrium was reached infrequently. Aggregating two groups into a larger one always hurt. We argue that players' beliefs about what the minimum will be are an 'expectational asset' (or liability) which is socially complex, linking organization-level behavior and the resource-based view of the firm.
