Barganing and power
Homework

1. Chp 12. Exercise 1 – Suppose a network exchange theory experiment is run on the graph depicted in Figure 12.10 using the one-exchange rule. Say which node or nodes you would expect to make the most money (i.e. receive the most favorable exchanges), and give a brief (1-3 sentence) explanation for your answer.

2. Suppose a network exchange theory experiment is run on the graph depicted in Figure 12.11 (i.e. a graph that is a 3-node path), using the one-exchange rule.

Now you, playing the role of a fourth node d, are told to attach by a single edge to one of the nodes in the network. How should you attach to the network to put yourself in as powerful a position as possible, where power will be determined by the result of a network exchange theory experiment run on the resulting 4-node network? Give a brief explanation for your answer.

3. Suppose a network exchange theory experiment is run on the graph depicted in Figure 12.12 using the one-exchange rule with $10 placed on each edge

a. Say which node or nodes you would expect to make the most money (i.e. receive the most favorable exchanges), and give a brief (1-3 sentence) explanation for your answer. You do not need to give actual numbers for the amounts of money the nodes would receive.

b. Now the experimenters vary the network: they introduce a sixth node f, which is attached by a single edge to just the node c. A new person is brought in to play the role of f, and a new round of experiments is performed with this new six-node network. Explain what you think will happen to the relative power of the participants, compared to the situation in (a), and give a brief (1-3 sentence) explanation for your answer. Again, you do not need to give actual numbers for the amounts of money the nodes would receive.

4. Suppose a network exchange theory experiment is run on the graph depicted in Figure 12.13 using the one-exchange rule with $10 placed on each edge.

a. Say which node or nodes you would expect to make the most money (i.e. receive the most favorable exchanges), and give a brief (1-3 sentence) explanation for your answer. You do not need to give actual numbers for the amounts of money the nodes would receive.

b. Now the experimenters vary the conditions slightly: instead of placing $10 on the b-c edge, they place only $2. Otherwise, the experiment is run exactly as before.

Explain what you think will happen to the relative power of each of the participants, compared to the situation in (a), and give a brief (1-3 sentence) explanation for your answer. Again, you do not need to give actual numbers for the amounts of money the nodes would receive.
