Defining the Rules of the Ultimatum Game
In the ultimatum game, the 'rules of the game' or institutions explicitly define the structure of the interaction. These rules determine the total amount to be divided (the pie's size), assign the roles of Proposer and Responder, outline the Proposer's permissible actions (offering any portion of the pie), specify the Responder's choices (to accept or refuse the offer), and dictate the final allocation of the pie based on the players' decisions.

Evaluating Substantive and Procedural Fairness in the Ultimatum Game
In a one-shot ultimatum game involving a $100 prize, which of the following scenarios presents the biggest challenge to the assumption that individuals act purely out of self-interest to maximize their own financial gain?
Analyzing a Seemingly Irrational Economic Decision
A two-person game is structured as follows: Player 1 (the Proposer) is given a sum of money and must offer a portion of it to Player 2 (the Responder). The Responder can then either accept the offer, in which case the money is split as proposed, or reject it, in which case both players receive nothing. Arrange the following events of a single round of this game in the correct chronological order.
According to a model where individuals are assumed to be perfectly rational and motivated solely by self-interest, a Responder in the ultimatum game should reject any offer they perceive as unfair, even if it is greater than zero.

Consider a two-player scenario for dividing $100. The Proposer makes an offer on how to split the sum. The Responder can accept or reject it. The established rules are altered in one specific way: if the Responder rejects the offer, the Proposer gets $0, but the Responder gets to keep $10. How does this single rule change affect the underlying structure of the interaction?
An experiment is designed where two participants, a 'Proposer' and a 'Responder', must divide a $500 bonus. The Proposer is instructed to make a take-it-or-leave-it offer to the Responder. The Responder can then choose to accept the proposed split. If the offer is accepted, the $500 is divided according to the proposal. Based on the standard structure of this type of interaction, which essential component that defines the game's rules is missing from this description?
Analyzing a Negotiation Scenario
In a strategic interaction where two players decide how to divide a sum of money, several rules define the structure of the game. Match each component of the game's rules to its correct description.
According to the standard rules that structure a two-player, take-it-or-leave-it interaction for dividing a sum of money, if the second player (the Responder) rejects the first player's (the Proposer's) offer, both players receive a payoff of zero.

Modifying a Negotiation Game
In a strategic interaction to divide $100, the Proposer offers a split, which the Responder rejects. Following the rejection, an external party gives the Responder $5, while the Proposer gets $0. Which fundamental rule that structures this type of interaction has been broken?
A Proposer and a Responder are participating in a strategic interaction to divide a sum of money. Arrange the following events in the correct chronological order as dictated by the standard rules of this interaction.
In a strategic interaction to divide $20, the first player (the Proposer) offers the second player (the Responder) $2. The Responder rejects this offer. According to the standard rules that define this interaction, the final payoff for the Proposer is $____.
In a strategic interaction where two players decide how to divide a sum of money, several rules define the structure of the game. Match each component of the game's rules to its correct description.
