Abstract

From the experimental side, we will study the most profound observations from the lab and the field, learn basic techniques how to create and evaluate your own experimental data. From the theoretical side, we will study basic theories that attempt to explain observed biases and learn how to extend the standard economic models to account for behavioral aspects.

Learning Objectives

give to students an idea of what is Be-havioral Economics as a separate field of Economics.

Expected Learning Outcomes

to design and run an experiment
to distinguish the standard rational agent behavior from the observed patterns
