In his award-winning work, Prof. Tomáš Jagelka, Ph.D., from the Institute for Applied Microeconomics, shows that accounting for the noisiness of people’s observed choices in experiments and survey responses is crucial for connecting economists’ and psychologists’ thinking about human differences.

“I am honored that the distinguished committee of experts deemed my work the best article published in 2024 within the crowded domain concerned with understanding how people make decisions.”

The winning paper was selected by the panel of Professors Erik Eyster (UC Santa Barbara), Yan Chen (University of Michigan), and Neil Stewart (University of Warwick).

The Exeter Prize is an annual prize of the University of Exeter Business School awarded to the most outstanding article published in a refereed journal in the previous calendar year from the following fields: experimental economics, decision theory, and behavioural economics.
