The results of the sequential experiments are identical to Schelling's prediction: subjects finish in a segregated equilibrium. Likewise, in the variant of simultaneous decision the same result is reached: segregation. Subjects’ heterogeneity generates a series of focal points in the first round; the subjects in order to locate themselves use these focal points immediately, and as a result, the segregation takes place again.}, organization = {Financial support from the MCI (SEJ2006-11510/ECON, SEJ2007-62081/ECON, ECO2008-04576/ECON and ECO2008-06395-05-03), Junta de Andalucia Excelencia (P07.SEJ.02547) and Instituto de la Mujer (2008.031) is gratefully acknowledged.}, publisher = {Universidad de Granada.
