Abstract
The four essays collected in this PhD thesis explore the hold-up problem and delegation using the experimental method. The first essay provides a summary
of the experimental literature examining the hold-up problem. The second essay
investigates the relationship between strategic delegation and the nature of the
strategic interaction through a laboratory experiment. The third essay demonstrates strategic delegation can help mitigates the hold-up problem by setting the appropriate incentive schemes in a laboratory experiment. The fourth essay studies the credit shifting effect of delegation with rewards in an online experiment.
