Advances in Efficient Design of Experiments in Economics

Amidst concerns about replicability but also thanks to the professionalisation of labs, the rise of pre-registration, the switch to online experiments, and enhanced computational power, experimental economics is undergoing rapid changes. They all call for efficient designs and data analysis, that is, they require that, given the constraints on participants' time, experiments provide as rich information as possible. In this Element the authors explore some ways in which this goal may be reached.
