Psychological Foundations of Economic Behavior by Paul J. Albanese Pdf
The papers collected here represent the growing range of issues addressed by both economists and psychologists. The collection's main objectives are twofold: to broaden the behavioral basis of economic analysis at a social level and to expand the limits of economic theory's applicability. The contributors attempt to find a common ground of analysis that bridges disciplines and to establish a framework that integrates psychology's contributions with economics. They explore mathematical models of psychological functions, the use of psychoanalytic theory in economics, entrepreneurial behaviour, and the impact of personality types on organizations.

Foundations of Economic Psychology by Kazuhisa Takemura Pdf
This book provides an overview of the concept of economic psychology from behavioral and mathematical perspectives and related theoretical and empirical findings. Economic psychology is defined briefly as a general term for descriptive theories to explain the psychological processes of microeconomic behaviors and macroeconomic phenomena. However, the psychological methodology and knowledge of economic psychology have also been applied widely in such fields as economics, business administration, and engineering, and they are expected to become increasingly useful in the future—a trend suggested in several eminent scholars’ studies. The book explains the numerous behavioral and mathematical models of economic psychology related to micro- and macroeconomic phenomena that have been proposed in the past, and introduces new models that are useful to explain human economic behaviors. It concludes with speculations about the future of modern economic psychology, referring to its connection with fields related to neuroscience, such as neuroeconomics, which have been developed in recent years. Readers require no advanced expertise; nonetheless, an introductory understanding of psychology, business administration, and economics, and a high- school-graduate level of mathematics are useful. To aid readers, each chapter includes a bibliography, which can be referred for more details related to economic psychology.

Economic Motives by Zenas Clark Dickinson Pdf
Excerpt from Economic Motives: A Study in the Psychological Foundations of Economic Theory, With Some Reference to Other Social Sciences The following essay grew out of a doctoral thesis presented at Harvard University in 1919, and it was submitted in the Wells Prize competition in 1920. It seems impossible to find a title that accurately and briefly covers the field of the inquiry. This field may be called the psychological problems and postulates of economics, which are most conspicuous, of course, in the matter relating to Wants, Self-Interest, Value, Interest and Wages. These psychological questions are concerned, I believe, not only with seeking the chains of causation which make economic behavior what it is, and what it might be, but also with examining the effects of such activities on human welfare. In other words, it appears that there are psychological problems involved in the fullest investigation of Production and Economic Welfare, as well as of Value and Distribution. The main purpose of this essay is to gather up whatever material is to be found in psychological science that offers help in dealing with the above problems, and to present this material briefly in a manner intelligible to the economist or other social scientist. A considerable background of psychological fundamentals is given (in Part II), the relevancy of which may not be apparent, for the reason that the psychological vocabularies now current in social science discussions are too confused to admit of clear statements unless one's own presuppositions are made quite explicit. The relevancy of the historical chapters (in Part I) to my main purpose may also be questioned, and perhaps they are over lengthy.

Handbook of Contemporary Behavioral Economics by Morris Altman Pdf
At a time when both scholars and the public demand explanations and answers to key economic problems that conventional approaches have failed to resolve, this groundbreaking handbook of original works by leading behavioral economists offers the first comprehensive articulation of behavioral economics theory. Borrowing from the findings of psychologists, sociologists, political scientists, legal scholars, and biologists, among others, behavioral economists find that intelligent individuals often tend not to behave as effectively or efficiently in their economic decisions as long held by conventional wisdom. The manner in which individuals actually do behave critically depends on psychological, institutional, cultural, and even biological considerations. "Handbook of Contemporary Behavioral Economics" includes coverage of such critical areas as the Economic Agent, Context and Modeling, Decision Making, Experiments and Implications, Labor Issues, Household and Family Issues, Life and Death, Taxation, Ethical Investment and Tipping, and Behavioral Law and Macroeconomics. Each contribution includes an extensive bibliography.

Intentional Behaviorism by Gordon Foxall Pdf
Intentional behaviorism is a philosophy of psychology that seeks to ascertain the place and nature of cognitive explanation of behavior by empirically determining the scope of an extensional account of behavior based on the limitations of a behavioral approach to explanation. This book draws on an empirical program of research in economic psychology to establish a route to a reliable and justifiable intentional explanation of behavior. Since the cognitive revolution in psychology, intentional explanations of behavior have become the norm, and as the methodology that provides the normal science component of psychology, cognitivism is sometimes accepted relatively uncritically. However, there is a lack of understanding of the role of psychological research in determining the place and shape of intentionality. This book explicates the philosophy of psychology that the author has devised and applied in his work on economic psychology and behavioral economics. Given the provenance of intentional behaviorism, economic and consumer psychology forms the primary application basis for the book. This book provides a theoretical background to understanding how and why consumers make the choices they do. The book integrates behavioral economics, consumer psychology, and decision-making research to explore intentional behaviorism, which is proposed as a philosophical framework for consumer psychology, viewing economic behavior in the contexts of modern human consumers in affluent marketing-oriented societies. Integrates research in behavioral economics, decision-making, cognitive psychology, and consumer psychology. Offers readers an interdisciplinary look at intentionality and intentional explanations. Proposes a theory of intentional behaviorism to explain economic behavior, consumer choice, and other decision-making. Examines the methodologies of philosophers of mind such as Dennett and Searle.

It considers the evidence against the exponential discounted utility model and describes several behavioral models such as hyperbolic discounting, attribute based models and the reference time theory. Part IV describes the evidence on classical game theory and considers several models of behavioral game theory, including level-k and cognitive hierarchy models, quantal response equilibrium, and psychological game theory. Part V considers behavioral models of learning that include evolutionary game theory, classical models of learning, experience weighted attraction model, learning direction theory, and stochastic social dynamics. Part VI studies the role of emotions; among other topics it considers projection bias, temptation preferences, happiness economics, and interaction between emotions and cognition. Part VII considers bounded rationality. The three main topics considered are judgment heuristics and biases, mental accounting, and behavioral finance.

Understanding Economic Behaviour by Klaus Günter Grunert,Folke Ölander Pdf
may be related to another basic assumption in economic psychology: that the human capacity to process information from the environment is limited, and that the kind of optimal use of that information postulated in many economic theories is therefore not possible. The research methods used are mainly geared towards empirical research, and there mostly towards survey research and experimentation. Experimentation involves most often simulated behaviour in a laboratory, which allows the experimental manipulation of possible causes of behaviour which would not be possible in real life. Survey research is the most widely used instrument for investigating real-world behaviour, with all its caveats about establishing causal explanations. Several introductory books (e. g. , Fumham & Lewis, 1986; Lea, Tarpy, & Webley, 1987; van Raaij, van Veldhoven, & Wlimeryd, 1988) and articles (e. g. , van Raaij, 1979; Wiswede, 1988) have appeared recently, which try to give an overview of the field of economic psychology, and which, in varying degrees, demonstrate the three foundations of economic psychology just mentioned. Others have concentrated on certain subtopics, such as the psychology of the labour market (e. g. , Baxter, 1988; Pelzmann, 1986).
