摘　　要：近年来,国外学者利用大量的道德实验和调查问卷等实证方法来研究经济学者与非经济学者之间的行为差别,其中多数结果都证明:经济学者普遍比非经济学者表现得更利己,也更缺乏亲社会行为。对经济学者更利己的原因解释分为性别差异假说、自我选择假说和教育灌输假说等。在对其中经典的研究予以梳理和比较之后,本文重点分析了此次金融危机中经济学者的行为。结果发现:经济学课程的学习对学生们有着长期效应,这些学生工作后一定程度上成为金融危机的直接微观推手,而那些经济学教授们也明显表现出忙于寻找借口、推卸责任的道德风险行为。Many foreign scholars adopted different empirical methods,such as moral experiments or survey data to inquiry whether economists are more selfish than other groups in recent years.Most of results have proved that economists behave more selfish than non-economists,and also lack pro-social behaviors generally.The reasons can be divided into the gender difference hypothesis,self choice hypothesis and indoctrination hypothesis,etc.This paper summarized these classical studies to emphatically analyze the economists＇ behavior in the financial crisis.The results showed that the education of economics courses has long-term effects on students who would become micro impellers of the global financial crisis.The neoclassical economists are also responsible for the crisis by calling it an unpredictable.
