Warum wir ticken, wie wir ticken Der Sachbuch-Bestseller des Verhaltens-Psychologen Dan Ariely erklärt, wie wir Entscheidungen treffen: mit der Logik der Unvernunft Kennen Sie das auch? Beim Anblick eines köstlichen Desserts fallen uns spontan tausend vernünftige Gründe ein, unser Diät-Gelübde zu brechen. Wir sind fest davon überzeugt, dass teure Produkte besser wirken als billige. Und für jeden von uns gibt es etwas, für das wir bereit sind, deutlich mehr Geld auszugeben, als wir haben – aus ganz vernünftigen Gründen, versteht sich. Bestseller-Autor Dan Ariely stellt unser Verhalten auf den Prüfstand, um herauszufinden, warum wir immer wieder unvernünftig handeln – und dabei felsenfest überzeugt sind, uns von Vernunft leiten zu lassen. Denn wenn wir Entscheidungen treffen, gehen wir davon aus, dass wir das Für und Wider vernünftig abwägen. In Wahrheit werden unsere Entscheidungen jedoch meist von vorgefassten Urteilen und einer gelernten Weltsicht beeinflusst. Unvernünftige Entscheidungen liegen offenbar in der menschlichen Natur begründet. Ebenso unterhaltsam wie spannend zeigt der renommierte amerikanische Verhaltens-Psychologe Dan Ariely in seinem Bestseller, wie die meisten unserer Entscheidungen tatsächlich zustande kommen, und wie unvernünftig unsere Vernunft oft ist. »Ein ebenso amüsantes wie lehrreiches Buch.« Der Spiegel

Denken hilft zwar, nützt aber nichts

Why do smart people make irrational decisions every day? The answers will surprise you. Predictably Irrational is an intriguing, witty and utterly original look at why we all make illogical decisions. Why can a 50p aspirin do what a 5p aspirin can't? If an item is "free" it must be a bargain, right? Why is everything relative, even when it shouldn't be? How do our expectations influence our actual opinions and decisions? In this astounding book, behavioural economist Dan Ariely cuts to the heart of our strange behaviour, demonstrating how irrationality often supplants rational thought and that the reason for this is embedded in the very structure of our minds. Predicatably Irrational brilliantly blends everyday experiences with a series of illuminating and often surprising experiments, that will change your understanding of human behaviour. And, by recognising these patterns, Ariely shows that we can make better decisions in business, in matters of collective welfare, and in our everyday lives from drinking coffee to losing weight, buying a car to choosing a romantic partner.

Predictably Irrational

Bestselling author Dan Ariely reveals fascinating new insights into motivation—showing that the subject is far more complex than we ever imagined. Every day we work hard to motivate ourselves, the people we live with, the people who work for and do business with us. In this way, much of what we do can be defined as being “motivators.” From the boardroom to the living room, our role as motivators is complex, and the more we try to motivate partners and children, friends and coworkers, the clearer it becomes that the story of motivation is far more intricate and fascinating than we’ve assumed. Payoff investigates the true nature of motivation, our partial blindness to the way it works, and how we can bridge this gap. With studies that range from Intel to a kindergarten classroom, Ariely digs deep to find the root of motivation—how it works and how we can use this knowledge to approach important choices in our own lives. Along the way, he explores intriguing questions such as: Can giving employees bonuses harm productivity? Why is trust so crucial for successful motivation? What are our misconceptions about how to value our work? How does your sense of your mortality impact your motivation?

Fascinating and provocative, Ariely’s The Truth About Dishonesty is an insightful and brilliantly researched take on cheating, deception and willpower. Internationally bestselling author Ariely pulls no punches when it comes to home truths. Previous titles PREDICTABLY IRRATIONAL and THE UPSIDE OF IRRATIONALITY have becomes classics in their field, revealing unexpected and astonishing traits that run through modern humankind. Now acclaimed behavioural economist Dan Ariely delves deeper into the dark and murky recesses of contemporary psychology, daring to ask the big questions: What makes us cheat? How and why do we rationalise deception of ourselves and other people, and make ourselves ‘wishfully blind’ to the blindingly obvious? What affects our infuriatingly intangible willpower and how can we ‘catch’ the cheating bug from other bad apples? If you’ve ever wondered how a whole company can turn a blind eye to evident misdemeanours within their ranks, whether people are born dishonest and whether you can really be successful by being totally, brutally honest, then Dan has the answers, and many more.

The (Honest) Truth About Dishonesty

'Thoughtful, moving and well-written' - Yuval Noah Harari 'An urgent examination of the human attraction to misinformation' - Daniel H. Pink Misinformation affects us daily, from social media to politics and even personal relationships. Policing social media alone cannot solve the complex problem shaped by partisan politics and subjective interpretations of truth. In Misbelief social scientist Dan Ariely explores the behaviour of 'misbelief' that leads people to distrust accepted truths and embrace conspiracy theories. Misinformation taps into something innate in all of us, regardless of political affiliation. By understanding this psychology, we can mitigate its effects. Grounded in research and Ariely's personal experience as a target of disinformation, the book analyses the psychological drivers behind adopting irrational beliefs. Ariely reveals the emotional, cognitive, personality, and social elements that drive people towards false information and mistrust. Despite advanced AI generating convincing fake news, Ariely offers hope. Awareness of the forces fuelling misbelief makes individuals and society more resilient. Combating misbelief requires empathy, not conflict. Recognising misbelief as a human problem allows us to be part of the solution.

Misbelief

New York Times Bestseller “Ariely is a genius at understanding human behavior: no economist does a better job of uncovering and explaining the hidden reasons for the weird ways we act.” — James Surowiecki, author of The Wisdom of Crowds Behavioral economist and New York Times bestselling author of Predictably Irrational Dan Ariely offers a much-needed take on the irrational decisions that influence our dating lives, our workplace experiences, and our temptation to cheat in any and all areas. Fans of Freakonomics, Survival of the Sickest, and Malcolm Gladwell’s Blink and The Tipping Point will find many thought-provoking insights in The Upside of Irrationality. How can large bonuses sometimes make CEOs less productive? Why is revenge so important to us? How can confusing directions actually help us? Why is there a difference between what we think will make us happy and what really makes us happy? In his groundbreaking book, Predictably Irrational, Ariely revealed the multiple biases that lead us to make unwise decisions. Now, in The Upside of Irrationality, he exposes the surprising negative and positive effects irrationality can have on our lives.

The Upside of Irrationality

Blending humor and behavioral economics, the New York Times bestselling author of Predictably Irrational delves into the truly illogical world of personal finance to help people better understand why they make bad financial decisions, and gives them the knowledge they need to make better ones.

Partnering with financial comedian and writer Jeff Kreisler, Ariely takes us deep inside our minds to expose the hidden motivations that are secretly driving our choices about money. Exploring a wide range of everyday topics—from credit card debt and household budgeting to holiday sales—Ariely and Kreisler demonstrate how our ideas about dollars and cents are often wrong and cost us more than we know.

Dollars and Sense

The groundbreaking bestseller from iconic behavioral psychologist Dan Ariely, now the inspiration for the Fall 2023 NBC show The Irrational “A marvelous book that is both thought provoking and highly entertaining, ranging from the power of placebos to the pleasures of Pepsi. Ariely unmasks the subtle but powerful tricks that our minds play on us, and shows us how we can prevent being fooled.” — Jerome Groopman, New York Times bestselling author of How Doctors Think “Ariely is a genius at understanding human behavior: no economist does a better job of uncovering and explaining the hidden reasons for the weird ways we act, in the marketplace and out. Predictably Irrational will reshape the way you see the world, and yourself, for good.” — James Surowiecki, author of The Wisdom of Crowds Why do our headaches persist after we take a one-cent aspirin but disappear when we take a fifty-cent aspirin? Why do we splurge on a lavish meal but cut coupons to save twenty-five cents on a can of soup? When it comes to making decisions in our lives, we think we're making smart, rational choices. But are we? In this revised and expanded edition of the groundbreaking New York Times bestseller, Dan Ariely refutes the common assumption that we behave in fundamentally rational ways. From drinking coffee to losing weight, from buying a car to choosing a romantic partner, we consistently overpay, underestimate, and procrastinate. Yet these misguided behaviors are neither random nor senseless. They're systematic and predictable—making us predictably irrational.

The Predictably Irrational

The renowned social scientist, professor, and bestselling author of Predictably Irrational delivers his most urgent and compelling book—an eye-opening exploration of the human side of the misinformation crisis—examining what drives otherwise rational people to adopt deeply irrational beliefs. Misinformation affects all of us on a daily basis—from social media to larger political challenges, from casual conversations in supermarkets, to even our closest relationships. While we recognize the dangers that misinformation poses, the problem is complex—far beyond what policing social media alone can achieve—and too often our limited solutions are shaped by partisan politics and individual interpretations of truth. In Misbelief, preeminent social scientist Dan Ariely argues that to understand the irrational appeal of misinformation, we must first understand the behavior of “misbelief”—the psychological and social journey that leads people to mistrust accepted truths, entertain alternative facts, and even embrace full-blown conspiracy theories. Misinformation, it turns out, appeals to something innate in all of us—on the right and the left—and it is only by understanding this psychology that we can blunt its effects. Grounded in years of study as well as Ariely’s own experience as a target of disinformation, Misbelief is an eye-opening and comprehensive analysis of the psychological drivers that cause otherwise rational people to adopt deeply irrational beliefs. Utilizing the latest research, Ariely reveals the key elements—emotional, cognitive, personality, and social—that drive people down the funnel of false information and mistrust, showing how under the right circumstances, anyone can become a misbeliever. Yet Ariely also offers hope. Even as advanced artificial intelligence has become capable of generating convincing fake news stories at an unprecedented scale, he shows that awareness of these forces fueling misbelief make us, as individuals and as a society, more resilient to its allure. Combating misbelief requires a strategy rooted not in conflict, but in empathy. The sooner we recognize that misbelief is above all else a human problem, the sooner we can become the solution ourselves. Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

Small Change

“A lively tour through the impulses that cause many of us to cheat, the book offers especially keen insights into the ways in which we cut corners while still thinking of ourselves as moral people.” — Time Dan Ariely, behavioral economist and New York Times bestselling author of Predictably Irrational and The Upside of Irrationality, returns with a thought-provoking work that challenges our preconceptions about dishonesty and urges us to take an honest look at ourselves. Does the chance of getting caught affect how likely we are to cheat? How do companies pave the way for dishonesty? Does collaboration make us more or less honest? Does religion improve our honesty? Most of us think of ourselves as honest, but, in fact, we all cheat. From Washington to Wall Street, the classroom to the workplace, unethical behavior is everywhere. None of us is immune, whether it's a white lie to head off trouble or padding our expense reports. In The (Honest) Truth About Dishonesty, award-winning author Dan Ariely shows why some things are easier to lie about than others; how getting caught matters less than we think in whether we cheat; and how business practices pave the way for unethical behavior, both intentionally and unintentionally. Ariely explores how unethical behavior works in the personal, professional, and political worlds, and how it affects all of us, even as we think of ourselves as having high moral standards. But all is not lost. Ariely also identifies what keeps us honest, pointing the way for achieving higher ethics in our everyday lives. With compelling personal and academic findings, The (Honest) Truth About Dishonesty will change the way we see ourselves, our actions, and others.

The Honest Truth About Dishonesty

Three-time New York Times bestselling author Dan Ariely teams up with legendary The New Yorker cartoonist William Haefeli to present an expanded, illustrated collection of his immensely popularWall Street Journal advice column, “Ask Ariely”. Behavioral economist Dan Ariely revolutionized the way we think about ourselves, our minds, and our actions in his books Predictably Irrational, The Upside of Irrationality, and The Honest Truth about Dishonesty. Ariely applies this scientific analysis of the human condition in his “Ask Ariely” Q & A column in the Wall Street Journal, in which he responds to readers who write in with personal conundrums ranging from the serious to the curious: What can you do to stay calm when you’re playing the volatile stock market? What’s the best way to get someone to stop smoking? How can you maximize the return on your investment at an all-you-can-eat buffet? Is it possible to put a price on the human soul? Can you ever rationally justify spending thousands of dollars on a Rolex?In Ask Ariely, a broad variety of economic, ethical, and emotional dilemmas are explored and addressed through text and images. Using their trademark insight and wit, Ariely and Haefeli help us reflect on how we can reason our way through external and internal challenges. Readers will laugh, learn, and most importantly gain a new perspective on how to deal with the inevitable problems that plague our daily life.

Irrationally Yours

Behavioral economist and New York Times bestselling author of Predictably Irrational Dan Ariely returns to offer a much-needed take on the irrational decisions that influence our dating lives, our workplace experiences, and our general behaviour, up close and personal. In The Upside of Irrationality, behavioral economist Dan Ariely will explore the many ways in which our behaviour often leads us astray in terms of our romantic relationships, our experiences in the workplace, and our temptations to cheat. Blending everyday experience with groundbreaking research, Ariely explains how expectations, emotions, social norms and other invisible, seemingly illogical forces skew our reasoning abilities. Among the topics Dan explores are: • What we think will make us happy and what really makes us happy; • How we learn to love the ones we are with; • Why online dating doesn’t work, and how we can improve on it; • Why learning more about people make us like them less; • Why large bonuses can make CEOs less productive; • How to really motivate people at work; • Why bad directions can help us; • How we fall in love with our ideas; • How we are motivated by revenge; and • What motivates us to cheat. Drawing on the same experimental methods that made Predictably Irrational such a hit, Dan will emphasize the important role that irrationality plays in our day-to-day decisionmaking—not just in our financial marketplace, but in the most hidden aspects of our lives.

Warum halten wir die eigenen Ideen immer für die besten? Weshalb wirken sich hohe Boni nachteilig auf die Arbeitsleistung aus? Wieso folgen wir bei der Partnersuche nicht unserem Schönheitsideal? Und warum lassen sich Rachegefühle so schwer bezähmen? In seinem neuen Bestseller untersucht Dan Ariely unser Verhalten in der Arbeitswelt und in zwischenmenschlichen Beziehungen. Sein ernüchternder Befund: Wir meinen zwar, Alltagssituationen vernünftig einschätzen zu können und Herr unserer Entscheidungen zu sein, doch in Wirklichkeit lassen wir uns oft von unseren Instinkten und Gefühlen leiten. Wir erliegen Trugschlüssen und begehen unwissentlich immer wieder Fehler – zum eigenen Nachteil. Ariely hilft uns, die wahren Triebfedern unseres Handelns zu erkennen. Und er hat auch eine gute Botschaft: Tatsächlich geht es uns meist viel besser, wenn wir den Verstand links liegenlassen.

Wer denken will, muss fühlen

Sagt om boken: Läs boken Ologiskt. Se till att det blir ett rationellt beslut du tar. Den kommer att förändra ditt sätt att betrakta och hantera världen och dig själv. Boken är även intressant och högaktuell med tanke på förra årets (2017) nobelpris i ekonomi som gick till Richard H. Thaler för hans bidrag till beteendeekonomin. Tomas Silfving i Tidningen Kulturen Vi är tyvärr inte så rationella och klartänkta som vi tror. Och inte nog med att vi gör tankemisstag varje dag det har dessutom visat sig att vi begår samma misstag om och om igen. Dan Ariely, forskare och professor i beteendeekonomi, visar i en serie upplysande och ofta överraskande experiment att våra irrationella reaktioner varken är slumpmässiga eller orimliga utan, märkligt nog, systematiska och förutsägbara. När vi väl har insett detta kan vi bryta åtminstone vissa av våra omdömeslösa tankemönster och börja fatta bättre beslut. Genom att varva fascinerande forskningsresultat med vardagliga anekdoter förklarar Ariely hur förväntningar, känslor, sociala normer och andra dolda och till synes ologiska krafter stör vår förmåga att tänka och resonera klart. Ologiskt kommer att förändra ditt sätt att betrakta och hantera världen ett litet beslut i taget.

Ologiskt : Varför smarta människor fattar irrationella beslut

”För allt fantastiskt du gör för oss, allt förskräckligt du gör mot oss, och allt i gråzonen däremellan.” Med en dedikation till pengar inleds Dan Arielys och Jeff Kreislers bok som handlar om mekanismerna bakom vårt sätt att tänka kring pengar. Obönhörligt och underhållande skärskådas vårt irrationella sätt att fatta beslut i ekonomiska frågor. Om vi ska kunna komma fram till vettiga monetära beslut måste vi genomskåda våra märkliga handlingsmönster och ologiska beteenden när det gäller just ekonomi. … för hur kan vi utan att blinka köpa en resa för tiotusentals kronor – och lägga 20 minuter på att leta efter en gratis parkeringsplats? Eller låna miljoner till en bostad – och promenera i ösregn utan paraply till ett avlägset fik där vi sparar in en tia på kaffet? Det fascinerande och snabbväxande forskningsfältet beteendeekonomi har haft stort inflytande på många områden som berör ekonomisk forskning och politik, till exempel tilldelades nobelpriset i ekonomi förra året beteendeekonomen Richard Thaler. Rappt, roligt och med gedigen forskningsbakgrund hjälper Ariely och Kreisler läsaren att identifiera feltänk och fallgropar och istället använda smartare strategier då det handlar om vårt komplicerade förhållande till pengar.
