Inhalt
This module provides students with in-depth knowledge about consumer research at the intersection between Marketing, Psychology, and Cognitive Science. The module consists of classes that look into how individuals and groups make judgments and decisions and what factors influences their behavior (e.g. the lecture on judgment and decision making). Because most findings in this area of research rely on behavioral experiments, this module also focuses on methodological skills. This includes classes on how to plan and design behavioral experiments, conduct and report meaningful statistical analyses, and develop computational cognitive models. The module also includes classes about reproducibility and transparency in the behavioral sciences. The module is a pre-requisite for writing a Master thesis at the KIT Cognition and Consumer Behavior lab.
