Summary "The main point of this encyclopedia is to provide a comprehensive set of definitions and explanations of key concepts in behavioral economics provided by respected researchers. Written by those who are publishing in the field, the encyclopedia entries are rigorous, timely, and up-to-date. For those interested in the increasingly important area of behavioral economics and the related fields of economic psychology, and institutional, evolutionary, and experimental economics, this volume provides conceptual clarifications and insights. Moreover, the various entries are largely written in plain English to be easily understandable to scholars from across the disciplinary divide, students at different stages of their education, as well to public policy experts, journalists, politicians, and members of the general public. All entries include references for those interested in venturing further into the realm of behavioral economics"--Preface
