[edit] example PBE
In the example section, the following text appears: "In fact in the second game there is a perfect Bayesian equilibrium where...". Yet, there is only one game shown in the picture. Should the text be "In fact in the second stage there is a perfect Bayesian equilibrium where..." ?
- Not sure what that was about, got rid of "in the second game". Cretog8 (talk) 03:36, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] citations
The signaling example is based on an 1973 article by spence. here's the citation: Spence, A. M. (1973), 'Job Market Signaling', Quarterly Journal of Economics 87(3), 355--74.
would be nice if someone cared to add this citation to the article text... --1-is-blue (talk) 21:54, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Types
"(while the word type is used, it is not actually defined in any game theory texts, and may be lost to the ages.)" This is kinda a distraction in the article. "Type" is a standard term for game theory, and so it's fine to use it without qualification. (BTW, it's defined In Myerson's Analysis of Conflict, "The initial private information that a player has at this point in time is called the type of the player."
