Experimental Economics
Experiments are increasingly ubiquitous in economics — in the lab, in the field, on the internet, in government. This seminar will focus on the design of experiments and the interpretation of the data that they produce. The discussions will pay particular attention to the role experiments play in advancing theory, and the different econometric framing that may be desirable when researchers design their own data generating processes.
