Parameter symbol | Parameter name | Possible parameter values | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
\({{{{{\boldsymbol{\alpha }}}}}}\) | Inequality aversion | \(\left\{{0,\, 0.4,\, 1}\right\}\) | Degree of sensitivity to an unfair outcome against the other player. |
\({{{{{\boldsymbol{\omega}}}}}},\, {{{{{\boldsymbol{b}}}}}}^{{{{{\boldsymbol{T}}}}}} \, ({{{{\boldsymbol{\omega}}}}})\) | Risk Aversion | \(\left\{{0.4,\, 0.6,\, 0.8,\, 1,\, 1.2,\, 1.4,\, 1.6,\, 1.8 }\right\}\) | Multiplier for value of money kept over money returned by the partner. |
\({{{{{\boldsymbol{k}}}}}}\) | Theory of Mind sophistication | \(\left\{{0,\, 1,\, 2,\, 3,\, 4}\right\}\) | Number of recursive reasoning steps in representing beliefs of the other player. |
\({{{{{\boldsymbol{P}}}}}}\) | Planning | \(\left\{{1,\, 2,\, 3,\, 4}\right\}\) | Number of steps ahead planned into the interaction. |
