Behavioral economics - how anchor affects demand
PODHOROVÁ, Nikola
My bachelor thesis is focused on behavioral economics. Behavioral economics are based on psychology, sociology and economics. One chapter is dedicated to the psycho-logical direction - behaviorism. I'm interested in the topic: how to anchor affects demand. In my thesis examine the theory in practice, the goal of the experiment is to prove whether people, that they really let anchor to affect them. I called 120 respondents, whose were divided into two groups, each group had its own version of the questionnaire. Each version was equipped with different primary anchor, which causes groups have different results. Both questionnaires contained the same four questions. The data are processed in the STATISTICA program with using ANOVA. Type the questionnaire with which related primary anchor, influenced respondents offered prices. The first questionnaire had the primary anchor wedding ring and a the second one had massage. But it also happened, that some respondents did not offer anything. Naming a star for them are worthless. The issues that included questionnaires, had an impact on the decision-making level of education and the latter type of questionnaire. For other questions failed to demonstrate that they have influences on decision-making.
