MILWAUKEE (PRWEB) July 10, 2023 - In the 2023 AAEA Annual Meeting track session (sponsored by the AAEA Experimental Economics Section and the AAEA Institutional & Behavioral Economics Section) Best practices for conducting and publishing experiments in agricultural and food economics six panelists will discuss some of the great challenges of Western societies revolve around sustainable consumption and healthy food choices. Experiments offer a methodology to understand the behavioral drivers of economic outcomes while controlling for the potential confounds in observational data. While the interest of agricultural and applied economists in these approaches have grown increasingly popular, the number of experimental papers published in lead journals has been decreasing for years. This panel brings together leading researchers and editors to provide insights for best practices and advice for successfully conducting and publishing experimental research in agricultural economics and other in leading journals in the field.

Panelists in this session:

This session will take place on Monday, July 24 from 2:45 pm 4:15 pm Eastern in the Marriott Marquis Washington DC in the Catholic University room.
