Behavioural Economics and Experiments addresses key topics within behavioural economics, exploring vital questions around decision-making and human nature. Assuming no prior knowledge of economics, the book features wide-ranging examples from literature, film, sport, neuroscience and beyond.
Ananish Chaudhuri explores the complex relationships between human behaviour, society and decision-making, introducing readers to the latest work on heuristics, framing and anchoring, as well as ideas around fairness, trust and social norms. The book offers a fresh perspective on issues such as:
-
- Decision-making under uncertainty
-
- Firms’ pricing decisions
-
- Employment contracts
-
- Coordination failures in organizations
-
- Preventing bubbles in financial markets
This is an ideal introduction for students of behavioural economics, experimental economics and economic decision-making on economics, public policy, psychology and business-related programmes, and will also be accessible to policymakers and curious laymen.
Ananish Chaudhuri is Professor of Experimental Economics at the University of Auckland. He has taught at Harvard Kennedy School, Wellesley College, Rutgers University and Washington State University.
