SUMMARY:Wissenschaftliche Qualifizierung (auf Englisch): "Field Experiments
 "
DESCRIPTION:Zielgruppe Masterstudierende und Promovierende\n\nInhalte und Z
 iele Studies with random assignment of participants to different treatment 
 groups are becoming ever more relevant in economics and other social scienc
 es. While laboratory experiments allow for clean hypothesis testing and ide
 ntifications of causal effects, field experiments allow researchers to stud
 y people in their natural environment and to administer economic treatments
  at scale to a non‐student population. Good field experiments identify whic
 h pieces of information and contextual factors people use and ignore in dec
 iding wheher to take certain actions (buy goods, hedge risks, give to chari
 ty etc.) and how they interact in groups or markets. The results help to de
 sign effective decision contexts that enable people to make individually op
 timal choices and/or improve the coordination towards socially desirable ob
 jectives such as reducing pollution or inequality.\n\nIn this course partic
 ipants learn how to design field experiments, how good designs relate to (e
 conomic) theory and policy, what to pay attention to in the execution phase
 , and how to analyze the generated data. Participants have the opportunity 
 to present and discuss their own research projects at any stage (i.e. just 
 research design, preliminary data analysis or a full draft).\n\nReferent Pr
