This book is intended as a textbook for a course in behavioral economics for advanced undergraduate and graduate students who have already learned basic economics. The book will also be useful for introducing behavioral economics to researchers. Unlike some general audience books that discuss behavioral economics, this book does not take a position of completely negating traditional economics. Its position is that both behavioral and traditional economics are tools that have their own uses and limitations. Moreover, this work makes clear that knowledge of traditional economics is a necessary basis to fully understand behavioral economics. Some of the special features compared with other textbooks on behavioral economics are that this volume has full chapters on neuroeconomics, cultural and identity economics, and economics of happiness. These are distinctive subfields of economics that are different from, but closely related to, behavioral economics with many important overlaps with behavioral economics. Neuroeconomics, which is developing fast partly because of technological progress, seeks to understand how the workings of our minds affect our economic decision making. In addition to a full chapter on neuroeconomics, the book provides explanations of findings in neuroeconomics in chapters on prospect theory (a major decision theory of behavioral economics under uncertainty), intertemporal economic behavior, and social preferences (preferences that exhibit concerns for others). Cultural and identity economics seek to explain how cultures and people’s identities affect economic behaviors, and economics of happiness utilizes measures of subjective well-being. There is also a full chapter on behavioral normative economics, which evaluates economic policies based on findings and theories of behavioral economics.

"In the coming years, complex domestic and international environments and challenges to national security will continue. Intelligence analysts and the intelligence community will need access to the appropriate tools and developing knowledge about threats to national security in order to provide the best information to policy makers. Research and knowledge from the social and behavioral sciences (SBS) can help inform the work of intelligence analysis; however, in the past, bringing important findings from research to bear on the day-to-day work of intelligence analysis has been difficult. In order to understand how knowledge from science can be directed and applied to help the intelligence community fulfill its critical responsibilities, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will undertake a 2-year survey of the social and behavioral sciences. To launch this discussion, a summit designed to highlight cutting-edge research and identify future directions for research in a few areas of the social and behavioral sciences was held in October 2016. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the summit"--Publisher's description.

Dieses Sachbuch betrachtet eines der letzten großen Tabus unserer Zeit aus Sicht der Psychologie: Das Geld! – Was ist Geld eigentlich? Wie beeinflusst es unser Leben, unsere Gefühle, unser Denken und Handeln? Warum hat es diese Wirkung auf einzelne Menschen und die ganze Gesellschaft? Wieso ist es uns unangenehm, über „unser“ Geld und unsere Abhängigkeit davon zu reden? Silvia Breier gibt kurzweilige Antworten auf diese Fragen und verknüpft dabei auf unterhaltsame Weise tiefenpsychologische mit verhaltenspsychologischen, sozialhistorischen und ökonomischen Erkenntnissen. Lernen Sie Ihre eigene Beziehung zum Geld besser kennen – denn die Art und Weise, wie wir zu Geld stehen, was wir davon halten und welche Gefühle wir damit verbinden, beeinflusst unseren Umgang damit und entscheidet, ob wir finanziell erfolgreich sind oder scheitern. – Gelangen Sie zu einem entspannten und erfolgreichen Umgang mit „dem lieben Geld“ und einem zufriedenen Leben – unabhängig von der Höhe Ihres Kontostands! Über die Autorin Silvia Breier ist eine langjährige Bankerin. Ihr zweites Standbein hat sie als Systemische Psychosoziale Beraterin, Coach und Mentaltrainerin. Sie hat bereits die Bücher „Mental Diving" und „Die Krisen-Strategien der Banker: Lebenskrisen bewältigen - mit Know-how aus Finanzwelt und Psychologie" veröffentlicht. Die Kombination aus Business und psychologischem Background macht ihre Vorträge, Seminare und Bücher zu etwas Einzigartigem. Informationen darüber finden Sie auf www.silvia-breier.at.

A collection of short, bite-sized nuggets of insight into the psychological ups and downs of the leadership journey from one of the world’s top thinkers on leadership. Leadership often means living on the edge, living a life less ordinary, leaving the straight and narrow to take a more exciting path. Like riding a roller coaster, there will be moments that take our breath away but it is in those moments that we feel truly alive. Although we may not know what is coming round the next bend or after the next rise, we have a great time on the ride. Kets de Vries’s examination of the “inner theatre” pushes leaders and their coaches to become a personal and organizational detectives, to look beyond the obvious and discover the deeper meaning of their own and others’ actions. Doing so can prevent leaders becoming prisoners of their own past, failing to recognize the repetitive patterns in their behavior, making the same mistakes over and over again. Leaders are more likely than followers to experience ups and downs, successes and failures, happy days and sad. The intensity of the experience depends on the “rider.” They can scream or enjoy the ride—or, indeed, do both. They can make the best out of the beginnings and endings, the good times and bad, or they can sink beneath them. In Riding the Leadership Rollercoaster Kets de Vries provides leaders and their coaches with the insights that can help them take some control of the ride. .
