“Neuroeconomics”
I read an article about neuroeconomics. Because
there are many previous papers, I cannot follow all the information in this
rapidly progressing area. The hot topic of studies is about the neural
underpinnings of human's irrational economic behaviors. I heard that since
Lehman shock was at 2008, the government has supported those studies more intensively.
Among human's behaviors, economic ones are more suitable to be analyzed in
terms of mathematics. Moreover, although neuroimaging is done under a
laboratory setting, the model can be linked with economic behaviors in a real
world. It is promising to study further in this area, but there remain a lot of
things that we cannot elucidate in economics.
