摘要
Laboratory subjects repeatedly played one of two variations of a simple two-person zero-sum game of "hide and seek". Three puzzling departures from the prescriptions of equilibrium theory are found in the data: an asymmetry related to the player's role in the game; an asymmetry across the game variations; and positive serial correlation in subjects' play. Possible explanations for these departures are considered.
