Nash's Theory of Cooperative Games as a Predictor of the Outcomes of Buyer-Seller Negotiations: An Experiment in Media Purchasing
通过媒体购买的角色扮演实验,检验纳什合作博弈理论能否预测买卖谈判结果,并控制情境权力和谈判者影响力的干扰。
The authors report an experimental investigation of the ability of Nash's theory of cooperative games to predict the outcomes of buyer-seller negotiations, using the purchase of media time as an example. Previous theoretical work has identified conflict, power, and influence as central elements of buyer-seller negotiations. Nash's theory provides a framework for understanding conflict resolution. A role-playing experiment tests Nash's theory, while controlling for the potential effects of situational power and negotiator influence. Results support Nash's theory.
