In a simultaneous move, incomplete information game in which player 1 is unsure of which of two types player 2 is, player 1's strategy must include an action for each possible type that player 2 might be, but player 2 only needs to pick one action since he knows what type he is.
Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)
False
Rationale: The beginning of the game is prior to "nature's" move. Thus, player 2 does not know what type she is when she comes up with a plan -- i.e. a strategy -- for the game. Thus, player 2's strategy specifies an action for each possible type that she could be. Player 1, on the other hand, must take an action without knowing what type he is playing -- and so would only have to choose one action in his strategy (unless he, too, can take on multiple types).
