There is a class of models in psychology which seek to answer this question but have received scant attention in economics despite some clear empirical successes. In a previous post I discussed one of these, Decision by Sampling, and this post will look at another: the so-called Fast and Frugal heuristics pioneered by the German psychologist Gerd Gigerenzer. Here the individual seeks out sufficient information to make a reasonable decision. They are ‘fast’ because they do not require massive computational effort to make a decision so can be done in seconds, and they are ‘frugal’ because they use as little information as possible to make the decision effectively. 2020 Level: leicht Bounded Rationality: the Case of ‘Fast and Frugal’ Heuristics Cahal Moran Rethinking Economics Economists like to base their theories on individual decision making. Individuals, the idea goes, have their own interests and preferences, and if we don’t include these in our theory we can’t be sure how people will react to changes in their economic circumstances and policy. While there may be social influences, in an important sense the buck stops with individuals. Understanding how individuals process information to come to decisions about their health, wealth and happiness is crucial. You can count me as someone who thinks that on the whole, this is quite a sensible view. 2020 Level: leicht Decision by Sampling, or ‘Psychologists Reclaim Their Turf’ Cahal Moran Rethinking Economics In diesem Vortrag in ökonomischer Philosophie stellt Dr in Silja Graupe Lehrende und Mitbegründerin der Cusanus Hochschule für Gesellschaftsgestaltung eine neue Form der Erkenntnisgewinnung im Bereich ökonomischer Entscheidungen vor Als Gegenströmung zur Verhaltensökonomik oder zu rationaler Nutzenmaximierung werden Gemeinsinn Imagination und Pluralität in der Ökonomie verankert Dr Silja Graupe Digitale … 2020 Level: schwer Wie wir Ökonomie in Krisenzeiten neu gestalten können. Dr. Silja Graupe Cusanus Hochschule für Gesellschaftsbildung The most successful multialternative theories of decision making assume that people consider individual aspects of a choice and proceed via a process of elimination. Amos Tversky was one of the pioneers of this field, but modern decision theorists – most notably Neil Stewart – have moved things forward. At the current stage the theories are able to explain a number of strictly ‘irrational’ but reasonable quirks of human decision making, including various heuristics and biases. Not only this, but eye movements of participants strongly imply that the decision-making process depicted in the theories is an accurate one. 2020 Level: leicht The Quirks of Human Decisions, Explained Cahal Moran Rethinking Economics Exploring Economics, an open-source e-learning platform, giving you the opportunity to discover & study a variety of economic theories, topics, and methods. 2020 Level: leicht A Time for Precaution Cahal Moran Rethinking Economics In the history of the social sciences, few individuals have exerted as much influence as has Jeremy Bentham.

SALESKA, Jessica Londeree and CHOI, Kristen R. Society of Behavioral Medicine Lean Logic is the late David Fleming’s masterpiece, the product of more than thirty years’ work and a testament to the creative brilliance of one of Britain’s most important intellectuals. A dictionary unlike any other, it leads readers through Fleming’s stimulating exploration of fields as diverse as culture, history, science, art, logic, ethics, myth, economics, and anthropology, being made up of four hundred and four engaging essay-entries covering topics such as Boredom, Community, Debt, Growth, Harmless Lunatics, Land, Lean Thinking, Nanotechnology, Play, Religion, Spirit, Trust, and Utopia. The threads running through every entry are Fleming’s deft and original analysis of how our present market-based economy is destroying the very foundations—ecological, economic, and cultural— on which it depends, and his core focus: a compelling, grounded vision for a cohesive society that might weather the consequences 2020 Level: leicht Lean Logic: A Dictionary for the Future and How to Survive It the late Dr. David Fleming LeanLogic.online Surviving the Future is a story drawn from the fertile ground of the late David Fleming's extraordinary 'Lean Logic: A Dictionary for the Future and How to Survive It'.

Recognizing that Lean Logic's sheer size and unusual structure can be daunting, Fleming's long-time collaborator Shaun Chamberlin has selected and edited one of these potential narratives to create Surviving the Future.
