What Are Behavioral Economics Jobs?
Behavioral economics jobs focus on collecting data and using it to research trends in an industry. This field uses the principles of psychology to analyze human behavior and generate a better understanding of why people make certain economic choices and how they can be convinced to change their behavior. A behavioral economics researcher or behavioral research scientist are common job titles in this field, but the daily duties of both roles are functionally identical. Other jobs in this field are often based around supporting behavioral economics researchers, usually as part of a research team or by providing data analytics. The qualifications for employment in this field vary, but researchers typically need a master's degree or a doctorate in economics or behavioral sciences, as well as experience analyzing data.
