Abstract

The paper surveys the main meeting points between economics and psychology. It shows that their meeting is closely connected to a re-examinations of the decision-making theory, for individual, as well as for, game situations. After recalling the key role of the emotions in decision-making, it puts in light the contributions of psychology to the understanding of the agents? treatment of information through their framing, ant the relevance of cognitive sciences for studying their beliefs.
