Please rate the probability that the following

event will occur in 2011... n A massive flood somewhere in North America

in 2011, in which more than 1,000 people drown.

Bluffing your way into Behavioral Economics

FramingThe short version: Imagine a monastery. A young monk asks, ‘Can

I smoke while I’m praying?’ which gets a big fat no in reply. Later

he re-frames the question ‘Can I pray when I’m smoking?’… he’s

told he can pray whenever he likes.

Social NormsThe short version: Social norms is about not being a weirdo.
