[情報] 神經經濟學系列演講 -第二發
各位同學好
繼五月Poldrack的演講後，十月中將邀請加州理工學院經濟系的Prof. Colin Camerer到
台灣，兩場演講都和上次的地點相同，詳細資訊如下，有興趣的同學請記得提早入場!
We are announcing the upcoming of the Neuroeconomics colloquium series.
The speaker in October will be Prof. Colin F. Camerer.
He will give 2 talks,
one at 陽明大學 (活動中心第三會議室) (10/18, Tue, 3:30-5:30pm) and
one at 台大經濟系經大講堂 (10/20, Thur, 1:30-3:30pm).
Dr. Camerer is the Robert Kirby Professor of Behavioral Finance and Economics
at the California Institute of Technology. Originally trained as an
economist, Prof. Camerer is known for his contributions to incorporating
psychological principles to the study of human decision making and more
recently, to using evidence from neuroscience to constrain and refine
theories in economics. He has conducted research on individual decision
making, behavioral game theory and learning using functional magnetic
resonance imaging (fMRI), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS),
video-based eye-tracking, and on a wide range of subjects (college students,
professionals, villagers in Vietnam, brain lesion patients, autistic patients
and chimpanzees).
In the past five years (2006-2011), Prof. Camerer published extensively in
top journals such as Science (4 articles), Nature (1), Proceedings of the
National Academy of Sciences (5), as well as top economic journals such as
American Economic Review (5), Quarterly Journal of Economics (1) and Economic
Journal (3). He is a fellow of the Econometric Society and the Chair of
Russell Sage Foundation Behavioral Economics Roundtable.
Below is his talk information including abstracts.
演講一 10/18 (二) 15：30－17：30
Title: Cognitive neuroscience and game theory
Location: 陽明大學活動中心第三會議室 (Reception to follow after talk)
Abstract:
Game theory provides a vocabulary of canonical strategic interactions that
are important in human social, political, and economic life. However, game
theory has not been applied in cognitive neuroscience very much. This talk
will discuss some recent studies using fMRI and disorders (autism) to
illustrate how game theory might be useful in cognitive neuroscience.
演講二 10/20 (四) 13：30－15：30
Title: When game theory predicts well and badly: Evidence from lab, field,
and chimps
Location: 台灣大學經濟系經大講堂, 台北市徐州路21號 (Reception to follow after
talk)
Abstract:
There is mixed evidence of how accurate game theoretic predictions are
compared to human behavior. Cognitive hierarchy models can reconcile this
evidence systematically, since they sometimes predict large deviations and
sometimes predict small deviations. This will be illustrated with lab
behavior, eyetracking, and field data from a Swedish lottery. An unusual
domain in which game theory may work surprisingly well is when a particular
species has evolved a special niche-dependent adaptation for certain types of
fitness-enhancing games. This is addressed by comparing humans and chimps.
