Welcome to LABEL
Decisions, Motivation and Reasoning
While Experimental Economics has proven useful over the years to test and disentangle theories, it is often difficult to reveal motivations for choices. Non-choice data offer the opportunity to understand underlying mechanisms of decision-making leading to behavior. This additional knowledge can then be used to build theoretical models of behavior that better explain and better predict observed choices. These non-choice measures include reaction time, skin conductance, neural activity, and eye-movement, and are routinely collected at LABEL.
Decisions over the Life Cycle
LABEL is particularly interested in age-related aspects of decision-making. Specifically, topics of relevance include how preferences, motivations and choices change throughout the lifespan. Studies include populations from 4 to 85 years of age.
