Our annual Workshop on Behavioural Game Theory offers leading researchers the opportunity to present current experimental research related to the topic of game theory: the study of strategic interaction using methods of game theory, experimental economics, and psychology.
UEA’s 10th Behavioural Game Theory Workshop and methods training for PhD students.
The School of Economics and the Centre for Behavioural and Experimental Social Science (CBESS) at the University of East Anglia will be holding our 10th annual workshop on behavioural game theory on July 8th and 9th. We will also hold several events associated with the workshop designed to train PhD students in experimental methods.
The purpose of the workshop is to present current experimental and behavioural research related to the topic of game theory. Our theme this year is experimental methods, including methods of belief elicitation, choice process observation, incentivization, implementing lab experiments in the field, etc. All papers that lie at the intersection of game theory, behavioural economics, and experimental economics will be considered, but we will give priority to papers that fit with this year’s theme.

We are going to hold this year’s workshop face-to-face in Norwich, UK. The general format will be a small number of relatively long paper presentations. We will also hold a poster session for papers that are not selected for presentation. PhD students are especially encouraged to submit papers for the poster session as a way of getting feedback on their work in progress.
To assist PhD students and early career researchers, the workshop will include a panel discussion on experimental methodology. We will also run a mentoring session designed to facilitate 1-on-1 conversations between early career researchers, graduate students, and faculty members. Students in the early stages of their dissertation are particularly encouraged to get feedback on methodological issues.
If you would like to present a paper or poster, you can submit an extended abstract or paper online. The last date for submission of presentations is 15 April, and we will let you know if your paper has been accepted for presentation by 3 May. Please be certain to indicate whether you are applying for a presentation or poster, and if you would be interested in presenting a poster if your paper is not accepted for presentation.
You are invited to attend the conference even if you are not presenting a paper or poster. All attendees of the workshop, including speakers, will need to register to attend this year’s workshop via the UEA Store. Registration will open on 4 May. Please note that places are limited so please ensure that you sign up to register as soon as possible.
There will be no conference fees for speakers or attendees of the workshop. Due to budget restrictions, we will be unable to provide any additional support this year and all speakers and attendees will need to source their own accommodation and travel.
We are looking forward to this workshop and hope you will be attending!
