Using examples from various policy domains, it shows how good policy design often requires a synthesis of insights from economics and psychology. Policies should not only be compatible with economic incentives, but should also be sensitive to the cognitive abilities, limitations and biases of citizens. Written by policy practitioners in the Singapore government, this book is an introduction to how behavioural economics and the findings from cognitive psychology can be intelligently applied to the design of public policies."--Publisher's description. 000712447 650_0 $$aEconomics$$xPsychological aspects$$vCase studies. 000712447 651_0 $$aSingapore$$xEconomic policy$$vCase studies. 000712447 655_0 $$aElectronic books 000712447 7001_ $$aLow, Donald,$$d1973- 000712447 7102_ $$aCivil Service College, Singapore. 000712447 852__ $$bebk 000712447 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete $$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=846102$$zOnline Access 000712447 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:712447$$pGLOBAL_SET 000712447 980__ $$aBIB 000712447 980__ $$aEBOOK 000712447 982__ $$aEbook 000712447 983__ $$aOnline
