Contests with size effects through costs
چکیده انگلیسی

Eggert and Kolmar [Eggert, W., Kolmar, M., in press. Contests with size effects. European Journal of Political Economy.] examine the effects of group size on individual and aggregate payoffs in contests where prizes increase in the number of players. In a reconsideration of their paper, this note examines contests in which the unit cost of effort decreases in the number of players. In contests for fixed prizes, an increase in the number of players decreases individual and aggregate payoffs. In contests in which players face a trade-off between appropriative and productive investments, an increase in the number of players decreases individual payoffs while increasing aggregate payoffs.
