This project will focus on identifying fundamental attributes of economic decision making, a set of measurements that the researchers call "econographics. The project also will focus on measuring econographics in countries throughout the world and within the U.S. over time, and as well as examining how these attributes relate to popular attitudes and participation in governmental processes. The researchers will conduct an incentivized survey that will measure econographics across thirteen countries, and over three times within the U.S. The countries selected to survey include many different types of governmental and economic environments, including parliamentary democracies with high redistribution, federal systems with a large informal economies, transitional democracies, developing democracies and authoritarian states. These states also have a variety of economic systems. Through their measurement of econographics across a broad spectrum of countries, the researchers will test hypotheses related to the processes through which these fundamental attributes correspond with the political environment and with economic performance. The three survey waves within the U.S. will straddle a national election to examine how major national events, which are known to change popular attitudes, affect econographics.This project will provide new metrics to assess fundamentals of economic culture and decision making, and it will facilitate new modes of research to link behavioral economics with other social and behavioral science fields. The project will provide new insights related to the conduct of large-scale, cross-country, incentivized surveys, thereby facilitating future research based on empirical tests on representative samples of the population rather than on subjects in a social science laboratory. The project will provide valuable education and training opportunities for post-doctoral researchers and graduate students, and project results will provide valuable information and insights to assist policy makers and others in determining the most effective ways to attain socially desirable goals. This project is supported through the NSF Interdisciplinary Behavioral and Social Sciences Research (IBSS) competition.

该项目将重点关注识别经济决策的基本属性，这是一组研究人员称之为“经济学”的测量方法。 该项目还将侧重于衡量世界各国和美国国内的经济状况，并研究这些属性与公众态度和参与政府进程的关系。 研究人员将进行一项激励性调查，该调查将测量13个国家的经济状况，并在美国进行三次以上的调查。选择调查的国家包括许多不同类型的政府和经济环境，包括具有高度再分配的议会民主制，具有大型非正式经济的联邦系统，过渡民主制，发展中民主制和专制国家。 这些国家也有不同的经济制度。 通过对广泛国家的经济学进行测量，研究人员将检验与这些基本属性与政治环境和经济表现相对应的过程有关的假设。这三波调查将跨越美国大选，考察改变公众态度的重大国家事件对经济学的影响。该项目将为评估经济文化和决策的基础提供新的指标，并将促进行为经济学与其他社会和行为科学领域联系起来的新研究模式。 该项目将提供与开展大规模、跨国和激励性调查有关的新见解，从而促进今后基于对人口代表性样本而不是社会科学实验室中的主题进行的经验性测试的研究。 该项目将为博士后研究人员和研究生提供宝贵的教育和培训机会，项目成果将提供宝贵的信息和见解，协助决策者和其他人确定实现社会理想目标的最有效途径。 该项目通过NSF跨学科行为和社会科学研究（IBSS）竞赛获得支持。
