Course Description:
This course gives an overview of the established and yet growing field of behavioural economics and behavioural finance in particular. Behavioral economics posits that many financial and other economic phenomena may be better understood assuming that some individuals are less than fully rational. More generally, behavioural economics aims for psychologically more realistic explanations of economic phenomena. We touch/ cover topics such as: the foundations of behavioral economics in social and cognitive psychology (group, preference, and belief biases), decision making under uncertainty, time preferences and self-control, experimental economics, fairness, and selected topics in behavioral finance.
