Carleton Economics Laboratory for Behavioral and Experimental Research

About the Lab

The primary objective of this lab is to promote the principles of economic science by enabling researchers to conduct controlled experiments using human participants. Experimental data is then used to obtain new insights on the validity of behavioural theories as well as the performance of markets, economic mechanisms, and institutions.
