What is Experimental Economics
In the field of economics, experimental economics refers to the analysis of economic topics through the use of experimental methodologies. During experiments, data are collected with the purpose of estimating the size of the effect, determining whether or not economic theories are valid, and shedding light on market mechanisms. In economic experiments, the volunteers are typically motivated with cash in order to simulate the incentives that are seen in the real world. In order to gain a better understanding of how and why markets and other exchange systems operate in the manner that they do, experiments are utilized. In addition, the field of experimental economics has grown to include the study of institutions and the law.
