Despite this, the status of experimental economics remains controversial. In \u003ci\u003eExperimental Economics\u003c\/i\u003e, 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. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e 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. \u003ci\u003eExperimental Economics\u003c\/i\u003e 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.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNicholas Bardsley\u003c\/b\u003e is senior research fellow at the National Centre for Research Methods, University of Southampton. \u003cb\u003eRobin Cubitt\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of economics and decision research at the University of Nottingham. \u003cb\u003eGraham Loomes\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of economic behavior and decision theory at the University of East Anglia. \u003cb\u003ePeter Moffatt\u003c\/b\u003e is reader in econometrics at the University of East Anglia. \u003cb\u003eChris Starmer\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of experimental economics at the University of Nottingham. \u003cb\u003eRobert Sugden\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of economics at the University of East Anglia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 384\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 x 9.1 x 6.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 26, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51780897374496,"sku":"9780691204055","price":116.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/438a69ff3cc8e5f345d9578849562947.webp?v=1780539694","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/experimental-economics-rethinking-the-rules-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
