Dr. Johannes Lohse (Leuphana), Dr. Rima-Maria Rahal (MPI), Dr. Michael Schulte-Mecklenbeck (MPI), Dr. Andis Sofianos (Durham) und Dr. Conny Wollbrant (St. Andrews) have jointly published an editorial on ‘Investigations of Decision Processes at the Intersection of Psychology and Economics’. This editorial, published as an introduction to the special issue ‘Cognition and Economic Behaviour’ in the Journal of Economic Psychology, highlights recent developments in research on the cognitive processes underlying economic decisions.

By drawing on psychological and economic expertise, the articles in the special issue show how perception, attention and information processing can influence economic behaviour. The included studies highlight the need to go beyond the mere observation of decisions and gain deeper insights into the processes of information processing and decision-making by using methods such as mouse and eye tracking techniques.
