Exploring Neuroeconomics: Bridging Neuroscience and Economic Decision-Making Insights

Introduction

Neuroeconomics is an interdisciplinary field that merges neuroscience, psychology, and economics to explore how individuals make decisions. By examining the cognitive processes underpinning economic behavior, neuroeconomics seeks to understand the neural mechanisms involved in decision-making. This report will explore the implications of neuroeconomic research for our understanding of economic behavior, particularly how insights from neuroscience can enhance traditional economic models. The purpose of this report is to provide an overview of the contributions of neuroeconomics to economic decision-making, evaluate the significance of these contributions, and discuss potential applications in policy-making and behavioral economics.
