| Tiivistelmä: | This paper reports the results of a series of second-price auction experiments where each bidder's signal is given by a normally distributed value plus a normally distributed error. While bidders' values differ in one treatment they are the same in another, which allows for a direct test of the "winner's curse" irrespective of confounding factors. Bidders may also fall prey to a "news curse" when they do not sufficiently take into account that signals and errors are correlated. It is found that the effects of the winner's curse are mitigated by a news curse and loss or risk aversion. |
