ECON 4660
Behavioral Economics

Course information provided by the 2022-2023 Catalog. Courses of Study 2022-2023 is scheduled to publish mid-June.

This course introduces students to behavioral economics, a subfield of economics that incorporates insights from psychology and other social sciences into economics. The course reviews some of the standard assumptions made in economics, and examines evidence on how human behavior systematically departs from these assumptions. The course then investigates alternative models of human decision making, and assesses to what extent these alternative models help improve economic analyses.
