Transitions between equilibria in Bilingual Games under Probit Choice

We study the effect of introducing a bilingual strategy on the long run equilibrium outcome in a class of two-strategy coordination games with distinct payoff- and risk-dominant equilibria under the probit choice rule. Existing results show that in the class of two-strategy games under consideration, the inefficient risk dominant equilibrium is selected in the long run under noisy best response models. We show that if the cost of the bilingual option is sufficiently low then the efficient payoff dominant equilibrium will be selected in the long run under the probit choice rule.
