- Inhalt:
- This seminar course focuses on work from an interdisciplinary research strand that combines methods from Economics and Psychology and aims at understanding the foundation, development and social and economic out-comes of cognitive skills and personality (or non-cognitive skills), the latter including issues such as motivation, persistence, and self-efficacy. Students will work on topics including for example:
• Measurement of personality and personality traits
• Economic, biological, psychological and environmental determinants of skills
• Economic and social consequences of personality and personality traits
• Policy interventions to enhance skill formation during early childhood
Students will be introduced mainly into the economic literature of this re-search; yet, basics in personality psychology will be employed where needed.
Students are expected to have completed an Econometrics course and be familiar with regression analysis using Stata or equivalent software.
Topics for seminar papers and the relevant literature will be announced in class. The course language will be English.
