Interaction of Human and Artificial Agents on Double Auction Markets - Simulations and Laboratory Experiments

Carsten Schmidt and Jens Grossklags

Papers on Strategic Interaction from Max Planck Institute of Economics, Strategic Interaction Group

Abstract: This paper provides an overview on the simulations and experiments we have done in order to better understand human-agent interaction in a market environment. We find that the introduction of software agents does not necessarily induce a more efficient market. More surprisingly, information on the existence of software agents in the market environment results in more efficient behavior of human traders.
