Psychology and Behavioral Economics: Focus on the Relationship between Classical Psychophysics and Probability Weighting Functions in Decision Making Kazuhisa Takemura a and Hajime Murakami b Abstract We firstly explain the relationship between psychology and behavioral economics from historical perspective. We also theroretically and emprically demonstrated that classical psychophysics which was considered to be an origin of psychology is closely related to probability weigting function in prospect theory which is typical behavioral economic theory.
