摘　　要：美国经济学家Richard Thaler因其对行为经济学的广泛贡献,被授予2017年度诺贝尔经济学奖。Richard Thaler将人类心理学认知规律纳入经济决策分析,系统展示了人类特性如何影响个人经济决策及市场结果。他采用理论、实证和实验相结合的方法,推动行为经济学从边缘且有争议的领域转变为获得广泛认可的主流领域,他的众多发现对微观、宏观以及公共政策领域产生了深远的影响。本文对Richard Thaler在行为经济学领域所取得的学术成就进行梳理,并简要探讨其获奖成就对现有研究的启示。The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences decided to award the Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel for 2017 to American economist Richard H. Thaler for his distinguished contribution to Behavioral Economics. Richard Thaler incorporated psychological regularity into economic analysis,and justified that psychological factors are fundamentally important in the decision process. His extensive theoretic,empirical and experimental studies reveal that personal characteristics ignored in the traditional analysis have significant economic consequences in various contexts,and because of his pioneering attempt,behavioral economics was quickly accepted by mainstream economists. His work yields profound insights into microeconomics,macroeconomics,and public policymaking. In this paper,we briefly summarize the academic contribution of Richard Thaler,and discuss some related research directions worthy of attention.
