| Abstract: | The paper reports results on experiment testing on the following problem: The principal cannot judge the performance of his agent on the basis of the latter's report, because it may be deliberately false. The results indicate that communication- based and non-communication-based contracts which are strategically equivalent, elicit equivalent behavior from agents facing even a small monetary incentive to communicate opportunistically. |
