Another approach to the case study.

Abstract

Case studies, both actual and simulated, are valuable teaching aids. When cases are presented in a game format, laboratory data correlation becomes an active process for the player. This approach can be used as a learning exercise, to review course content, and to stimulate student interest and further inquiry.

Committee proposals and restrictive rules.

I analyze a game-theoretic model of committee-legislature interaction in which a majority decision to adopt either an open or closed amendment rule occurs following the committee's proposal of a bill. I find that, in equilibrium, the closed rule is almost always chosen when the dimension of the policy space is >1. Furthermore, the difference between the equilibrium outcome and that which would have occurred under the open rule can be arbitrarily small.

The prisoner's dilemma: game theory and the therapeutic alliance.

My aim in this paper is to describe how the therapeutic alliance evolves during psychoanalytic treatment. Lindgren has shown that a coevolutionary process can optimize the level of cooperation by the players in the game of prisoner's dilemma. This level is reached when strategies for recognizing reliable patterns in the sequence of moves by the other player have evolved. These are multiple memory strategies. Lindgren's work suggests that the analytic process must have sufficient time for multiple memory strategies to emerge if it is to achieve the necessary level of trust for an effective therapeutic alliance to develop.
