Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Following the success of level-k reasoning at explaining behaviour in a variety of settings, theorists have begun to apply the level-k model to auctions. While level-k theory is reasonably well developed, there are few empirical tests of the theory in the literature, and those tests that do exist fail to sharply distinguish the theory from its leading rival, Bayesian Nash Equilibrium. In this talk, I show how the predictions of the theories can be disentangled through two very different auction structures. I then propose an experiment that is designed to test which theory (if either) can explain actual bidding behaviour.
