Tóm tắt: | Experimental economists are leaving the reservation. They are recruiting subjects
in the field rather than in the classroom, using field goods rather than induced
valuations, and using field context rather than abstract terminology in instructions.
We believe that there is something methodologically fundamental behind this trend.
Field experiments differ from laboratory experiments in many ways. Although
it is tempting to view field experiments as simply less controlled variants of
laboratory experiments, this would be a serious mischaracterization. What passes
for “control” in laboratory experiments might in fact be precisely the opposite if it
is artificial to the subject or context of the task. We see field experiments as being
methodologically complementary to traditional laboratory experiments. |
