Abstract

Individual mnemonic abilities can play an important role in determining individual choices, especially in games that involve numerous decision-making situations in which the consistency of decisions depends on the information set retained by the subjects. In similar contexts it would be useful to distinguish the impact of cognitive abilities from mnemonic abilities on choices. We provide empirical evidence on the importance of providing cumulative information flow in games of the type described above.
