ECO331H1: Behavioural and Experimental Economics

24L/12T

Ample empirical and experimental evidence suggests significant departures from classical assumptions of economic behaviour.

This course describes systematic ways in which behaviour deviates from neoclassical assumptions, generating new, and hopefully more realistic behavioural assumptions that have broad empirical, theoretical and policy implications.
