The cover of a book titled "Behavioural Economics: Advanced Economic Policy and Theory" by Han Bleichrodt. The design features a stylized brain with gears and currency symbols inside, representing the intersection of psychology and economics.

'Behavioural Economics' is a Palgrave Macmillan textbook introducing students to the field, stressing how it can be applied in important policy decisions, with a special focus on health policy, and examples from finance, insurance, environmental policy, and climate change. #BehEcon bit.ly/4lipA0y

Reading this makes me think part of the challenge is optimizing time, energy, emotions to #resist: the so-called "picking your battles"

**How do we ppl go about picking their battles?**

Do we know underlying #psych here? There must be a #BehEcon paper on this…

Two worlds Ive always been an arm's length away are (1) #BehEcon and (2) that of Psych Models of Choice (eg the world of Bhatia, Griffiths, Stewart, Chater, Trueblood, Bhui)

Ive never been close to both simultaneously to know what sets them so far apart but I always thought they should be closer

Hopefully this is handy for those in #BehSci or #BehEcon, or even #PoliSci

Grateful for this thoughtful review of "Optimally Irrational" on Amazon! It captures something I tried to achieve with the book: remaining accessible while being ambitious with the ground covered.

If you teach behavioural economics, you can consider it for your reading list. #behecon

A lot of criticism has recently been levelled at behavioural scientists, ranging from p-hacking to outright fraud. My impression is that the problem is not in behavioural economics per se, but some other areas clearly seem to have a problem.

Why do we self-deceive? A likely explanation is that believing our own self-serving stories helps us convince others while acting truthfully. #behecon #behsci

Working memory and attention in choice We study the role of attention and working memory in choices where options are presented sequentially rather than simultaneously. We build a model where a costly attention effort is chosen, which can ...

So happy to see this paper finally out - a model that explains the recency effect in choice, supported by both behavioural and fMRI data; thanks to the co-authors and especially Aldo Rustichini, the brain behind this! journals.plos.org/plosone/arti... #neuroskyence #PsychSciSky #CogScience #BehEcon
