We make thousands of decisions every day. Do I cross the road now, or wait for the oncoming truck to pass? Should I eat fries or a salad for lunch? How much should I tip the cab driver? We usually make these decisions with almost no thought, using what psychologists call “heuristics” – rules of thumb that enable us to navigate our lives. Without these mental shortcuts, we would be paralyzed by the multitude of daily choices. But in certain circumstances, these shortcuts lead to predictable errors – predictable, that is, if we know what to watch out for. Did you know, for example, that we are naturally biased towards selling investments that are doing well for us, but holding on to those that are doing poorly? Or that we often select sub-optimal insurance payment plans, and routinely purchase insurance that we don’t even need? And why do so many of us fail to enroll in our employer’s corporate retirement plans, even when the employer offers to match our contributions?

シラバス - 本コースの学習内容
Week 1
Welcome to the course! In this first week, we'll look at the classical economic model of consumer choice, which assumes that all of the decisions that we make are sensible, or “rational.” Once we have examined the underlying theory of how people should behave (especially around financial decisions), we will move on to examine how people do behave. We will focus in particular on situations in which we are most inclined to make decisions that appear to defy rational choice axioms.
Week 2
Welcome to the second week. In this session, we will discover how our minds are inclined to distort probabilities, and either underestimate or overestimate the likelihood of certain outcomes. We’ll also learn about “heuristic-driven bias”: the tendency to use rules of thumb that simplify the process of making decisions, but can also lead to predictable errors. These biases negatively affect our decision-making far more than we might expect; especially when the outcome of the decision has great significance for us.
Week 3
In the final week of the course, we will see multiple examples of how mental heuristics can lead us to make predictably sub-optimal financial decisions, both individually and across the entire financial markets. We will also discuss the many ways in which you can now improve your financial decision-making because of your deeper understanding of the innate biases that have tripped you up in the past!

The course was good and the material was interesting. I wish that the course were more video-based however. There are some videos but they are meant to be played at specific points during the reading.
"Rationality is an assumption in economics, not a demonstrated fact" I loved this course and all the content. It was kind of hard to understand since i don't have the basic knowledge about economics.
Great course! It allows to understand the twisted logic that run in our heads. Helps to establish the balance between probabilistic truth and illusions that infect our decision-making. Thanks a lot!
Good course! There is just one thing I would improve here - an explanation of the mistakes after the tests are done. This improvement should increase the student`s understanding of specific topics.
よくある質問
いつ講座や課題にアクセスできるようになりますか？
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
- The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
- The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
修了証を購入すると何を行えるようになりますか？
修了証を購入する際、コースのすべての教材（採点課題を含む）にアクセスできます。コースを完了すると、電子修了証が成果のページに追加されます。そこから修了証を印刷したり、LinkedInのプロフィールに追加したりできます。コースの内容の閲覧のみを希望する場合は、無料でコースを聴講できます。
返金ポリシーについて教えてください。
支払日から2週間後、または（開始直後のコースの場合は）コースの最初のセッションが開始されてから2週間後の、いずれかの遅い日付の期間までが全額の返金の対象となります。コースの修了証を取得した後は、2週間以内にコースを完了した場合でも返金することはできません。返金ポリシーをすべて表示します。
学資援助はありますか？
はい。受講料の支払いが難しい受講生に、Coursera（コーセラ）は学資援助を提供しています。左側の［登録］ボタンの下にある［学資援助］のリンクをクリックして申請してください。申請書の入力を促すメッセージが表示され、承認されると通知が届きます。詳細。
Will I receive a transcript from Duke University for completing this course?
No. Completion of a Coursera course does not earn you academic credit from Duke; therefore, Duke is not able to provide you with a university transcript. However, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.
コースを修了することで大学の単位は付与されますか？
このコースでは大学の単位は付与されませんが、一部の大学ではコース修了証を単位として承認する場合があります。詳細については、大学にお問い合わせください。Coursera（コーセラ）のオンライン学位および Mastertrack™証明書は、大学の単位を取得する機会を提供します。
