Abstract |
Economics came to be the modern formalistic science of today, by among other
things, gradually excluding notions related to psychological literature. In doing so,
although it managed to create universal theories that expanded to other disciplines, it
lost in realistic foundations.
The purpose of this thesis is to present how, despite this early dichotomy
between the two sciences, psychology’s contribution can help to shape modern
economics by providing an empirical foundation and enriching the understanding of
human behavior. Economics literature at least in the field of behavioral and
experimental economics, is turning towards empirical research and experimentation.
We conclude that as this shift has made some roads into microeconomics,
although it is still excluded from most economics textbooks, after the 2008 financial
crisis and the doubt that spread over the usefulness of the dominant theories in finance,
the same may happen to the rest of Economics as the behavioral approach is becoming
even more mainstream
