Project 1 Instruction

Overview

Project 1 assesses your understanding of the readings from the book, “Predictably Irrational.”

The purpose of project 1 is to help you learn a list of consumer behavioral paradoxes, realize how they influence consumers’ decision making, understand why consumers sometimes behave irrationally, and perhaps more importantly, know your independent viewpoint concerning the irrationalities of human beings.

Format

The grade of your project is not determined by the length of your responses; instead, it is the quality of your responses.

It is encouraged to use graphs, tables, numbers, and any other creative and relevant elements to support your text response.
