A double auction market: Teaching, experiment, and theory

Martin Shubik

Simulation & Gaming, 2005, vol. 36, issue 2, 166-182

Abstract: A simultaneous double auction market with bid and offer cards was used in classes on the theory and history of money and financial institutions and occasionally in classes on the theory of games. The prime purpose in using this game was to teach the students how to construct process models of economic phenomena. The second purpose was to consider the properties of the double auction market. The third purpose was to interpret the experimental results and link them to theory.
