Economics is a science that investigates human behaviors. The rational person of Classical and Neoclassical Economics and the person with bounded rationality of behavioral economics are affected by individual, psychological, and social factors in their economic decisions. These factors are the fundamental determinants of the financial behaviors exhibited by the individuals in a society. These factors that affect individual financial decisions transform the rational person of classical economics into an individual with bounded rationality, which draws the theoretical framework of the concept of bounded rationality. This study provides a theoretical framework for an association between behavioral economics and financial behaviors. The central thesis of this study is that financial behaviors are an integral part of behavioral economics studies. When an interdisciplinary approach is taken, both fields examine the individual, psychological, and social factors that affect individuals' economic decisions. Although behavioral economics is considered a separate field, this study shows that individuals' economic behavior and decision-making are also examined within the scope of financial behavior.

Davranışsal İktisat ve Finansal Davranış Arasındaki İlişki Üzerine Bir Araştırma

İktisat, insan davranışlarını inceleyen bir bilim dalıdır. Klasik ve Neoklasik iktisadın rasyonel insanı ve davranışsal iktisadın sınırlı rasyonelliğe sahip insanı, ekonomik kararlarında bireysel, psikolojik ve sosyal faktörlerden etkilenir. Bu faktörler, bir toplumdaki bireylerin gösterdiği finansal davranışların temel belirleyicileridir. Bireyin finansal kararlarına etki eden bu türden faktörler klasik iktisadın rasyonel insanını sınırlı sanırlı rasyonalitiye sahip bireye dönüştürürken sınırlı rasyonalite kavramının da teorik çerçevesini çizmektedir. Bu çalışma, davranışsal iktisat ile finansal davranışlar arasındaki ilişkiye dair teorik bir çerçeve sunmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın ana tezi, finansal davranışların davranışsal iktisat çalışmalarının ayrılmaz bir parçası olduğudur. Disiplinler arası bir yaklaşım benimsendiğinde, her iki alan da bireylerin ekonomik kararlarını etkileyen bireysel, psikolojik ve sosyal faktörleri inceler. Bu kararlara aynı zamanda bireysel ve toplumsal faktörler olumlu veya olumsuz olarak etki eder. Bu kapsamda davranışsal iktisat ayrı bir araştırma alanı olarak kabul edilse de, bu çalışma bireyin ekonomik davranışının yanı sıra karar alma sürecinin de finansal davranış kapsamında incelendiğini göstermeye çalışmaktadır.
