Warglien, in collaboration with Devetag, contributes empirical evidence on how cognitive constraints—specifically working memory capacity—shape strategic decision-making in game-theoretic contexts. Their digit span methodology appears in the course readings as a way to measure individual differences in memory and correlate them with performance in strategic reasoning tasks, grounding discussions of bounded rationality in concrete psychometric data. This work matters for understanding how cognitive architecture constrains the kind of rational agents assumed in traditional game theory and economic models.
