Learning objectives

The major goal of this course is to provide students with a better and more rigorous understanding of a number of economic and social phenomena that characterize contemporary advanced economic systems. Several important issues (including consumers' and investors' bounded rationality as well as the so called "happiness paradoxes") can be fruitfully analyzed through the lens of the major theoretical constructs and empirical findings (including experimental evidence) obtained in the last years within the framework of behavioural economics. These topics will be addressed through lectures as well as various forms of interactive teaching managed through the E-learning platform.

Prerequisites and basic notions

Familiarity with basic microeconomic notions is required, with special regard to the logic of consumer choice. In this regard, the chapters focusing on consumer theory in H. Varian's “Microeconomics” handbook are recommended.

Program

1. Introduction. What is "behavioural economics"? Origins and methodology of behavioural economics. Behavioural economics and experimental economics (lab experiments, field experiments and lab-in-the-field experiments).
2. Part One. From full rationality to bounded rationality. Decision making under certainty: preferences and utility. The major cognitive and behavioural biases. Judgment and decision making under risk and uncertainty.
Policy implications, "asymmetric" (or "libertarian") paternalism and "nudging".
3. Part Two. Subjective well-being paradoxes within advanced economies.

Didactic methods

The course includes both frontal teaching activities and participatory teaching actions. The latter - to be implemented through various forms of interactive teaching managed through the E-learning platform - will be systematically integrated into the frontal teaching activity in order to improve its overall effectiveness.
During the course, the specific teaching materials will be made available before each lecture on the E-Learning platform.
The reference handbook of the course is "Economia Comportamentale. Guida alla Teoria della Scelta", by E. Angner, Hoepli, 2017.
Further teaching materials will be provided online (e.g. op-eds from the website lavoce.info), through the E-learning service, within the specific webpage prepared for this course.
Classroom attendance, though not compulsory, is highly recommended.

Learning assessment procedures

60-minute written exam, aimed at testing students' understanding of a number of economic and social phenomena that characterize contemporary advanced economic systems and that can be fruitfully addressed through the lens of the major theoretical constructs and empirical findings (including experimental evidence) obtained in the last years within the framework of behavioural economics. The exam will be based on a) multiple choice questions and b) open-ended questions.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE

Evaluation criteria

The first component of the written exam (multiple choice questions) assigns a maximum of 16 points out of 30. The second component (open-ended questions) assigns a maximum of 14 points out of 30.

Criteria for the composition of the final grade

First component: 16 points (out of 30)
Second component: 14 points (out of 30)

Exam language

Le studentesse e gli studenti che partecipano al programma Erasmus+ possono richiedere di sostenere la prova in lingua inglese. La richiesta deve pervenire con una settimana di anticipo rispetto alla data dell'appello a cui ci si iscrive.

CONTAMINATION LAB 

The Contamination Lab Verona (CLab Verona) is an experiential course with modules on innovation and enterprise culture that offers the opportunity to work in teams with students from all areas to solve challenges set by companies and organisations.

PLEASE NOTE: In order to be admitted to any teaching activities, including those of your choice, you must be enrolled in the academic year in which the activities in question are offered. Students who are about to graduate in the December and April sessions are therefore advised NOT to undertake extracurricular activities in the new academic year in which they are not enrolled, as these graduation sessions are valid for students enrolled in the previous academic year. Therefore, students who undertake an activity in an academic year in which they are not enrolled will not be granted CFU credits.
