Can biology help us to better understand gender differences in labor market behavior and outcomes? This chapter reviews the emerging literature which sheds light on this question, considering research in four broad areas: i) behavioral endocrinology; ii) human genetics; iii) neuroeconomics; and...

Diese Forschungsarbeit zählt zu dem Feld der Neuroökonomie, das sich aktuell an der Grenze zwischen Neurowissenschaften und Wirtschaftswissenschaften formt. Ziel ist es, durch die Betrachtung der gesamten Wirkungskette der Determinanten des menschlichen Verhaltens den Zusammenhang zwischen der...

Decision making can be a complex process requiring the integration of several attributes of choice options. Understanding the neural processes underlying (uncertain) investment decisions is an important topic in neuroeconomics. We analyzed functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data from...

This paper presents a choice model based on a model for the behavior of brain cells that is based on neurological findings. The paper shows that it is possible to define choice as the result of a series of interconnected cellular processes, instead of framing the problem from the point of view...

Risk attitude and perception is reflected in brain reactions during RPID experiments. Given the fMRI data, an important research question is how to detect risk related regions and to investigate the relation between risk preferences and brain activity. Conventional methods are often insensitive...

This paper examines whether the degree of confidence and overconfidence in one’s ability is determined biologically. In particular, we study whether foetal testosterone exposure correlates with an incentive-compatible measure of confidence within an experimental setting. We find that men...

Die Wahl des passenden Parfüms ist eine sehr persönliche, emotional gesteuerte Konsumentenentscheidung. Im hart umkämpften Parfümmarkt müssen sich Unternehmen vor den rational zu treffenden Entscheidungen über die Ausgestaltung des Marketing-Mix intensiv mit den zielgruppenrelevanten...
