| Abstract: |
In the past decade, researchers in economics have carried out considerable research on human behavior in social and psychological environments. Many interesting patterns have been found, but a great deal remains to be done. In particular, interdependent preferences have been somewhat successfully modeled for two-person environments, and the experimental study of groups, identity, group membership, and peer effects has recently blossomed. Yet, researchers outside the U.S. are performing much, if not most of this largely interdisciplinary research, as these researchers often have much easier access to substantial research funding. We feel that it is critical that funding be made available in these important areas, lest the U.S. fall further behind in this vital research. |
