Piter Anderson SEVERINO DE JESUS

I am a Brazilian Ph.D. who graduated from Aix-Marseille University with a degree in Strategy and Management Sciences. I am also an editorial board member in SertãoCult and manager at the National Department of Works Against Drought (Brazil). I have been writing articles and books about Information Systems, Innovation, and Institutional Economics. I'm glad to be part of this time that could allow me to deepen my research on these fields.

Level: beginner
Sporting events can be seen as controlled, real-world, miniature laboratory environments, approaching the idea of “holding other things equal” when exploring the implications of decisions, incentives, and constraints in a competitive setting (Goff and Tollison 1990, Torgler 2009). Thus, a growing number of studies have used sports data to study decision-making questions that have guided behavioral economics literature.
2021
Level: advanced
This article applies insights from behavioral economics to consider how the general public may make decisions around whether or not to receive a future COVID-19 vaccine in a context of frequent side effects and preexisting mistrust. Three common cognitive biases shown to influence human decision-making under a behavioral economics framework are considered confirmation bias, negativity bias, and optimism bias.
