Behavioural Economics

Irenaeus Wolff

Neoclassical economic models rest on the assumptions of rationality and selfishness. Behavioural economics investigates departures from these assumptions and develops alternative models. In this lecture, we will discuss in particular inconsistencies in intertemporal decisions, the role of reference points, and non‐selfish behaviour. We will analyze models that aim at a better description of actual human behaviour. In the tutorial, we will analyze the models in more detail and develop applications.

Dates:

Lecture: Tuesday, 08:15 ‐ 09:45 in F 428

Tutorial: Monday, 13:30 ‐ 15:00 in C 424

preliminary Course Outline

Programming Economic Experiments with z-Tree

Urs FischbacherFabian Dvorak & Konstantin von Hesler

will offer a short course in z-Tree from Feb 27 to March 1, 2017.

About z-Tree:

z-Tree is a widely used software package for developing and carrying out economic experiments. The language used to define the experiments is simple and compact, meaning that experiments can be developed quickly, and programming experience is not necessary, though useful. z-Tree is flexible both with respect to the logic of interaction and the visual representation, allowing the simple programming of normal form games, extensive form games, double auctions, or clock auctions, for example.

Course Information:

There will be two sections offered, a beginner section (days 1 and 2) and an advanced section (day 3). As the name implies, the beginner section is intended for those just beginning with z-Tree, and the advanced section for those already experienced in programming with z-Tree. In the advanced section, we will also help to solve individual problems. So it is feasible to participate in both parts.
