My dissertation focused on the role of higher-level reasoning in stable behavior.  In experimental economics, researchers treat human &#8220;what you think I think you think I think&#8221; reasoning as an implementation of a theoretical mechanism that should cause groups of humans to behave consistently with a theory called Nash equilibrium.  But there are also cases when human higher-level reasoning causes deviations from equilibrium that are larger than if there had been no higher-level reasoning at all.
