Behavioral Economics is a relatively new branch of Economics whose competencies are between Economics and Psychology. In this course, we will study which are the assumptions from traditional economic theory that Behavioral relaxes and therefore, which are the consequences. Some of the items that will be addressed are the concept of rationality within the decision-making under risk, how individuals actually account for the future, what is and what is for experimental economics, behavioral game theory and the role of nudging and policy making.
This course aims to relax some classical economic assumptions in order to study human behavior in a more realistic way.
