"Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary. Written by well-established researchers in behavioural economics, this Research Agenda illustrates the application of incentivised decision-making experiments, highlighting how this can add a new and novel dimension to social science research. Informative and timely, it explores how experiments are being used by pioneers in a diverse range of fields when research questions may not be amenable to field studies, vignettes or surveys. Offering fruitful cross-disciplinary discussions, the chapters look at incentivised decision-making experiments in the study of: social norms, law and economics, environmental regulations, entrepreneurship, healthy behaviour, gender and leadership, political ideology, and neuroeconomics. Chapters provide an opportunity for experienced experimental economists to develop more innovative applications of their tools and scope for less experienced scholars to learn how to incorporate experiments in their research questions. Researchers in economics, political science, sociology, as well as business and management will find this to be a beneficial read. Policy makers looking to understand how experimental tools and behavioural nudges are used to improve policy will also appreciate the key theoretical and practical applications of the topics offered in this Research Agenda"--

Since the 1980s, there has been explosive growth in the use of experimental methods in economics, leading to exciting developments in economic theory and policy. Despite this, the status of experimental economics remains controversial. In Experimental Economics, the authors draw on their experience and expertise in experimental economics, economic theory, the methodology of economics, philosophy of science, and the econometrics of experimental data to offer a balanced and integrated look at the nature and reliability of claims based on experimental research. The authors explore the history of experiments in economics, provide examples of different types of experiments, and show that the growing use of experimental methods is transforming economics into a genuinely empirical science. They explain that progress is being held back by an uncritical acceptance of folk wisdom regarding how experiments should be conducted, a failure to acknowledge that different objectives call for different approaches to experimental design, and a misplaced assumption that principles of good practice in theoretical modeling can be transferred directly to experimental design. Experimental Economics debates how such limitations might be overcome, and will interest practicing experimental economists, nonexperimental economists wanting to interpret experimental research, and philosophers of science concerned with the status of knowledge claims in economics.

This volume confronts and debates the issues faced by the growing field of experimental economics. For example, as experimental work attempts to test theory, it raises questions about the proper relationship between theory and experiments. As experimental results are used to inform policy, the utility of these results outside the lab is questioned, and finally, as experimental economics tries to integrate ideas from other disciplines like psychology and neuroscience, the question of their proper place in the discipline of economics becomes less clear.

Dieses Buch beschäftigt sich mit dem neuen Begriff der „Quantenökonomie“. Diese verbindet Erkenntnisse aus der Quantenphysik und der Bewusstseinsforschung mit ökonomischen Prozessen bzw. Rahmenbedingungen und versucht mit dem Quantenbewusstseinsmodell einen neuen Realitätsbegriff zu schaffen. Dieser Realitätsbegriff generiert neue Ideen und Denkanstöße für einen methodologisch anderen Ökonomiebegriff mit dem Ziel, das Potenzial für sinnvollere und nachhaltigere Entscheidungen zu erweitern. Der Inhalt Grundlagen zur Quantenphysik und zum Bewusstsein Entwicklung eines Quantenbewusstseinsmodells Verknüpfung von Quantenphysik, Bewusstsein und Ökonomie Die Zielgruppen Entscheidungsträger in der Wirtschaft Coachingaffine und -suchende Personen Der Autor Thomas Holtfort ist Professor für Finanz- und Wirtschaftspsychologie/Verhaltensökonomie und Coach (www.bauchundkopf.de).
