Art Exhibition Game

Source code for the nodeGame game Art Exbition Game, as in the following academic papers:

1- Balietti, S. and Riedl C. (2021) "Incentives, competition, and inequality in markets for creative production", Research Policy Volume 50, Issue 4

2- Balietti, S., Goldstone, R.L., and Helbing, D. (2016) "Peer Review and Competition in the Art Exhibition Game", Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) Volume 113, Number 30, pp. 8414-8419

Installation

Clone/download the repository and save it inside the nodeGame games/ directory.

Treatments

In file game/game.settings.js 6 treatments are available:

  • rank_same: corresponds to condition "Flat" of Paper 1.

  • rank_skew: corresponds to condition "Tiered" of Paper 1.

  • threshold_random_com: corresponds to condition "Com" of Paper 2.

  • threshold_random_coo: corresponds to condition "non-Com" of Paper 2.

  • threshold_select_com: corresponds to condition "Com" with non-random review selection of Paper 2 (see Appendix).

  • threshold_select_coo: corresponds to condition "non-Com" with non-random review selection of Paper 2 (see Appendix).

Notes

Current codebase is ported to the latest version of nodeGame from previous versions. It is not the exact code used in either paper. In particular, a notable difference from paper 2 is that creation and submission are in two separate steps, instead of in the same step with a popup window. Moreover, in paper 2 there was no pre-game survey, only a small demographics survey at the end of the experiment. Finally, actual payoff values are different.
