ECON 2180 - Experimental Economics
Credits: 5.00
Economics courses covering mainstream theories are often based upon a priori reasoning, which is in turn built upon certain assumptions about individual optimizing behavior. This course introduces students to the new and expanding field of experimental economics. Instead of taking the mainstream assumptions and conclusions for granted, we will critically examine individuals' economic behavior and their 'social' consequences in various experimental settings. We will review the historical development of experiments and then cover specific topics that experiments have been designed to investigate. The course will have a heavy lab focus, with students themselves participating in simulations of most of the experiments discussed. Topics include market functioning, public goods and open access environmental resources, fairness and equity, and individual decision- making. Students will be encouraged to think about empirical and policy implications highlighted by both experiments and economic theory. Students will also gain an understanding of the scientific methodology required to create controlled experiments. Prerequisite: ECON 1030.
