Dr. Jochem de Bresser: De rol van verwachtingen in economische modellen
Economie , Econometrie en Financiering
Verwachtingen over lonen, gezondheid en levensduur spelen een centrale rol in economische modellen van arbeidsaanbod en spaargedrag. Echter, economen hebben die verwachtingen tot nu toe benaderd met hun eigen voorspellingen op basis van beschikbare gegevens. In dit onderzoek verrijkt De Bresser economische modellen met de daadwerkelijke verwachtingen die mensen koesteren.
Dr. Susanne) Täuber: De kunst van het overtuigen
Human Resource Management & Organizational Behaviour
Het is belangrijk om mensen ervan te overtuigen gezond te leven, maar wat als goedbedoelde pogingen averechts werken? Als gezond zijn wordt gezien als een morele plicht, kan dit leiden tot defensief gedrag. Täuber onderzoekt de effecten van morele oordelen op de zelfredzame participatiesamenleving die we na streven.
