Monotone Methods in Reputations: Behavioral Predictions and Reputation Sustainability

This proposal consists of three projects which advance the study of reputations using monotone methods. In Section 1, I incorporate interdependent values into existing reputation models and provide robust predictions on the reputation building player's behavior that apply across all equilibria of this repeated game. My results are useful for future applied work, such as estimating parameters from agents' observed behaviors, evaluating the e�ects of regulation policies, etc.
