February 15, 2010 - August 15, 2010

Organizer:

Eyal Winter (The Hebrew University)

Behavioral Decision Making is the study of how people make decisions. It draws together research from psychology, economics, political science, and management, among other fields. Research in behavioral decision making includes both mathematical modeling of behavior as well as empirical work (primarily experimental), where subjects fact a strategic environment in the lab with incentives generated by real monetary payoffs.
