Handbook of Field Experiments (Handbook of Economic Field Experiments)

Abhijit V. Banerjee

4.4/5 ( ratings)

Handbook of Field Experiments explains how to conduct experimental research, presents a catalog on what research has uncovered thus far, and describes which areas remain to be explored. The section on methodology will be of particular interest to scholars working with experimental methods. Among substantive findings, contributors report on a body of results in areas from politics, to education, and firm productivity, demonstrating the power of these methods, while shedding light on issues such as robustness and external validity. Separating itself from circumscribed debates of specialists, this volume surpasses in usefulness the many journal articles and narrowly-defined books written by practitioners.
Balances methodological insights with analyses of principal findings and suggestions for further research
Appeals broadly to social scientists seeking to develop an expertise in field experiments
Strives to be analytically rigorous
Written in language that is accessible to graduate students and non-specialist economists

Pages: 670

Format: Kindle Edition

Publisher: North Holland

Release: March 21, 2017
