The biannual Polish Journal of Economic Psychology aims to present the latest concepts and research results in the areas where economic and psychological theories overlap. For many years, this has been a rapidly growing trend in the social sciences and a new area of research. The purpose of Polish Journal of Economic Psychology is to be a platform for exchanging thoughts and innovative ideas in the field of psychology, explaining the mechanisms of economic behavior (psychology of money, work psychology, consumer behavior, and entrepreneurship), behavioral finance, and experimental economics. The problems of Polish Journal of Economic Psychology are very important, especially in the context of the events related to the crisis in the financial markets, where psychological factors are often implicated as causes of the crisis.
This periodical substantially supports the integration of the academic fields of psychology and economics. Thereby, it enables the development of this highly dynamic and interdisciplinary research area in Poland. One of our goals is also to popularize research among practitioners, mainly in companies in the financial sector.
This magazine is an initiative of the Academic Association of Economic Psychology, Department of Financial Markets at the University of Economics in Krakow, and the Foundation of the University of Economics in Krakow.
