  abstract     = {{We study the willingness to compete in a cognitive task among an entire cohort
of fresh man business and economics students. Combining data from a lab-in-thefield
experiment with university admissions data, we trace the gender gap in
competitiveness at different levels of high school performance. Our results confirm
that, on average, men choose to compete more often. The gender gap disappears,
however, among students with above average high school performance. Female high
school top performers are equally competitive as their male counterparts. In fact,
the overall gender gap is entirely driven by the group of female high school underperformers
who shied away from competition, even when they performed well in our
task. Overall, our findings suggest that high school grades are more than just a
signal of cognitive abilities, because they seem to influence the receivers selfperception
of his or her performance in a competitive environment involved in later
on in life.}},

  abstract     = {{This paper studies welfare consequences of consumer-side market transparency with endogenous entry of firms. Different from most studies, we consider the unique symmetric entry equilibrium, which is in mixed strategies. We identify two effects of market transparency on welfare: a competition effect and a novel market-structure effect. We show, surprisingly, that for almost all demand functions the negative market-structure effect eventually dominates the positive competition effect as the market becomes increasingly transparent. Consumer-side market transparency can therefore be socially excessive even without collusion. The only exception among commonly used demand functions is the set of constant demand functions. }},

  abstract     = {{How is collective defence by players affected when they face a threat from an intelligent attacker rather than a natural threat? This paper analyses this question using a game-theoretic model. Facing an intelligent attacker has an effect if players move first and visibly set their defence strategies, thereby exposing any players who do not defend, and if the attacker is, moreover, not able to commit to a random attack. Depending on the parameters of the game, the presence of an intelligent attacker either increases the probability that players jointly defend (where such joint defence either does or does not constitute a utilitarian optimum), or decreases the probability that players jointly defend (even though joint defence is a utilitarian optimum).}},
