Designing Interrogations
研究了审讯中双方信息不对称的模型，比较了一次性审讯均衡与完全承诺下最优机制中的检控错误，并设计了一种无需承诺即可实现最优的反复审讯机制。
Abstract We provide a model of interrogations with two-sided asymmetric information. The suspect knows his status as guilty or innocent and the likely strength of the law enforcer’s evidence, which is informative about the suspect’s status and may also disprove lies. We compare prosecution errors in the equilibrium of the one-shot interrogation and in the optimal mechanism under full commitment. We describe a back-and-forth interrogation with disclosure of the evidence that implements the optimum in equilibrium without any commitment.
