Competence Certificate

Gradings will be based on the quality of the experimental program, data, and the research report in Stage 2.

Prerequisites

Experimental design (either take the course in our module, or gain basic knowledge of experimental design by self-education)

Annotation

In this course, students will gain first-hand experience into how to conduct an experimental study in the area of behavioral economics/psychology.

The course contains two stages. In Stage 1, students will learn how to plan, program, and run an experiment by attending to blocked lectures. In Stage 2, students will choose one classic experiment in the area of behavioral economics or psychology, conduct a replication of that experiment using the techniques acquired in Stage 1, and write a research report on the results of the replication.

The number of participants is limited. The registration will take place via the Wiwi-Portal.
