BOUNDED RATIONALITY IN DECISIONS AND GAMES - Heuristics, Coarse reasoning, and other biases
June 19 to June 23, 2023
Ambitions
This PSE summer school presents topics in behavioural game theory, bounded rationality and decision theory. It is motivated by the desire to move beyond the standard paradigm with rational expectations and expected utility theory, and present the implications of this for the understanding of economic phenomena sometimes viewed as paradoxical in the standard paradigm.
