ECO 340 - Behavioral and Experimental Economics

3 credits
Prerequisites: ECO 231, 232
Behavioral and experimental economics, an emerging subfield which incorporates insights from other disciplines such as psychology, sociology, and neuroscience, into economic models of behavior. At its core, this field attempts to modify and extend neoclassical economic theory so that the predictions of  neoclassical models more closely resemble observed behavior.
