Texto da chamada
In Finance, experiments are a relatively novel method, although they have a long-standing tradition in many disciplines, for example, medical science and physics, but also in economics and psychology. The main advantage of controlled experiments vis-a-vis empirical analyses of archival data is their strong internal validity: experiments allow for clear causal inference of treatments on pre-defined outcome variables in a controlled setting. With this advantage, experiments are an important complement to classical empirical studies in Finance, which are often externally more valid (as they use real data), but also limited in their ability to provide causal evidence. In the last years, experiments in Finance have gained more and more traction, not only in economic journals, but also in top finance journals. Although still novel for many scholars in Finance, experiments rapidly develop into an established and well-known method in the Finance toolbox.
This special issue invites submissions of state-of-the-art high-quality articles on topics related to experiments in Finance. All papers applying controlled experiments in Finance (for example, lab and/or field experiments, but not natural experiments), as well as methodological and survey papers related to experiments in Finance are welcome.
SUBMISSION DEADLINE: November 30, 2021
CONFERENCE DATE: June 16-18, 2021
Next to regular submissions to the special issue (submission deadline 31 November 2021), papers presented at the conference “Experimental Finance 2021” (EF2021) in Innsbruck (Austria), hosted by the Society for Experimental Finance in June 16-18, 2021, are eligible for submission to the special issue. The guest editors of this special issue encourage interested authors to submit their papers to the EF2021 for early feedback. In addition, they strongly encourage all authors to publish their paper open access, pre-register their experiments, and make their experimental data public.
The guest editors will initially review the papers and decide which papers will go forward for review by two anonymous referees each. The general editors of the journal have oversight over the final set of papers accepted for publication.
It is the policy of the JBF and the guest editors that the latter do not handle papers of their co-authors. Papers submitted by co-authors of the guest editors will solely be handled by one of the JBF-editors without consulting the guest editors.
Guest Editors are:
Michael Kirchler (University of Innsbruck)
Utz Weitzel (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Radboud University)
