Résumé
We present an experimental finitely repeated game with two players and two actions based on García-Gallego et al. (2018). Such frame is suitable for the analysis of coordination among players under asymmetric information. Two treatments are run in order to analyse the effect of a pre-play chat online in which players have the possibility to exchange open messages. A measure of efficiency is proposed that allows for identifying the random component of coordination and, therefore, testing the relation between the non-random component and the online communication. A positive significant relation is found between the payoffs from the non-random coordination and effective time of online communication. Elaborated communication strategies implying a high degree of coordination are detected.
