Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This project investigates the following two issues on behavioral economic implications of neuroeconomic data. (1) I developed a behavioral decision making model to predict a future price movement when an extreme price change occurs in a financial market. With fMRI data, the model demonstrates that the human brain activity in the fMRI data differs between the situations where the extreme change occurs due to a fundamental change of the financial instrument, and where that occurs due to merely a noise. (2) I performed a field experiment to investigate how a salesperson behaves differently facing with a larger, performance-contingent reward in a real-world setting. I recorded physiological data (heart rate and tone of voice) during the experiment to obtain proxies for her stress. Detailed analysis is currently being processed.
