Applied Behavioral Economics: Fact-checking intuitions and risky decision making

Incentives like competitive compensation are used in many different applications, often because managers intuitively assume that better results will emerge when such incentives are implemented. It turns out this assumption is not always true.

In this talk, Dr. Ryan O. Murphy demonstrates how behavioral experiments and data are used to identify situations and the drivers that inadvertently can create perverse incentives.

Ryan is a Visiting Professor at the Economics Department, University of Zürich.
