Abstract :
A commonly accepted criterion of equilibrium selection has not been established. This situation exists because we do not have sufficient information about what sort of equilibrium is selected in real games. In this experimental study, we investigate a set of games and estimate the selected equilibrium of each game by using an estimation model of equilibrium selection. Through the analysis, a criterion that rules these games in the experiments is identified, and the usefulness of the approach is demonstrated.
