The External Validity of Laboratory Experiments : Qualitative rather than Quantitative Effects
نویسندگان
چکیده
Laboratory experiments are used to address a wide variety of questions within economics, including whether behavior is consistent with the predictions and assumptions of theory and how various mechanisms and institutions affect the behavior of economic agents (see Roth 1987 for an overview). The experimental laboratory has become an integral part of the field of economics and a productive dialog now exists between theory, laboratory experiments, and field studies. Results from laboratory experiments are being published in the leading economics journals and many top departments now have experimental laboratories.
