JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC BEHAVIOR & ORGANIZATION
Scope & Guideline
Bridging Theory and Practice in Economic Behavior
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Behavioral Economics:
The journal emphasizes the role of psychological factors in economic decision-making, exploring how biases, heuristics, and social norms affect individual and group behaviors in economic contexts. - Organizational Behavior:
Research on how organizational structures, cultures, and practices influence economic behaviors and outcomes, including topics like leadership, teamwork, and institutional dynamics. - Experimental Economics:
A significant focus on experimental methods to investigate economic behavior, allowing researchers to test theories and hypotheses in controlled settings. - Public Policy and Social Issues:
Studies that assess the impact of economic decisions and policies on social issues such as inequality, health, and education, often using empirical data from real-world scenarios. - Interdisciplinary Approaches:
Encouragement of interdisciplinary research that integrates insights from psychology, sociology, political science, and economics to address complex economic behaviors and organizational phenomena.
Trending and Emerging
- Social Media and Economic Behavior:
An increasing number of studies focus on how social media influences economic behaviors, such as consumer choices and investment decisions, reflecting the growing intersection of technology and economics. - Climate Change and Economic Decision-Making:
Research addressing the economic implications of climate change, including behavioral responses to environmental policies and the economic impacts of sustainability initiatives. - Health Economics and Behavioral Insights:
A surge in studies that explore the intersection of health and economics, particularly in the context of public health crises like COVID-19 and how health behaviors are influenced by economic incentives. - Diversity and Inclusion in Economic Contexts:
Emerging research emphasizing the impact of diversity and inclusion on economic outcomes, organizational behavior, and social equity, reflecting broader societal discussions on these issues. - Data Science and Behavioral Analysis:
The integration of big data analytics and machine learning techniques in understanding economic behavior is on the rise, showcasing a trend towards data-driven insights in economic research.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Economic Models:
There appears to be a waning interest in purely traditional economic models that do not incorporate behavioral insights. Researchers are increasingly focusing on models that integrate psychological and social factors. - Overly Narrow Focus on Rationality:
The decline of papers that emphasize strict rationality assumptions in economic behavior, as the field moves towards more nuanced understandings of human behavior that account for irrationalities and biases. - Purely Theoretical Research:
There has been a noticeable decrease in the publication of purely theoretical papers without empirical validation, as the journal increasingly favors studies that incorporate experimental or real-world data. - Market Efficiency Hypothesis:
Research focusing solely on the market efficiency hypothesis seems to be less prevalent, possibly as scholars explore more complex dynamics of market behavior influenced by psychology and social factors.
