Cognitive foundations of behavior in symmetrical and asymmetrical cooperations games: An economic and psychological approach

理解个人和集体的经济行为是经济学研究的核心。在实验经济学中，人类社会行为的动机因素和战略因素都得到了深入的研究。在过去的几十年里，社会认知研究已经发展出这样一种知识，即只有在行为背后的信息过程清楚的情况下，才能正确理解人类行为。尽管这一心理学研究在经济主题方面具有重要意义，但这一知识却被经济研究广泛忽视。本研究有助于研究经济行为的认知基础。本研究采用跨学科的方法，结合社会心理学和实验经济学的方法，探讨了合作的认知基础。在解决社会困境时，合作是最重要的。具体地说，直觉决策在对称和不对称合作博弈中的作用是为了建立关于经济行为认知基础的知识。

Understanding economic behavior of individuals and collectives is at the core of economic research. Both motivational as well as strategic elements of human social behavior have been thoroughly investigated in experimental economics. Within the last decades, social cognition research has developed the knowledge that human behavior can only be properly understood if information processes that underlie behavior are clear. Despite the importance of this psychological research with respect to economic topics, this knowledge has widely been ignored by economic research. The present research contributes to the investigation of cognitive foundations of economic behavior. By an interdisciplinary approach with methods from social psychology and experimental economics, this research addresses cognitive underpinnings of cooperation. Cooperation is of utmost importance when solving social dilemmas. Specifically, the role of intuitive decision making in symmetrical and asymmetrical cooperation games is addressed to establish knowledge about cognitive foundations of economic behavior.
