Tuesday, June 7th, 2005This is a sweet article, describing behavioral economics research (free registration/login req’d).
…in a clean and spacious laboratory at Yale-New Haven Hospital, seven capuchin monkeys have been taught to use money, and a comparison of capuchin behavior and human behavior will either surprise you very much or not at all, depending on your view of humans.
food for money, money for sex, and risk-aversion all manifested in the lab… it’s an interesting read.
