機制設計
閱讀設定
機制設計(粵拼:gei1 zai3 cit3 gai3;英文:mechanism design)係經濟學同博弈論嘅一個子領域,重點係採取一個工程學嘅思考方式嚟設計經濟:科學會運用科學方法了解世界,而工程學就係靠科學得到嘅知識嘗試設計出有用嘅技術;經濟學同機制設計之間嘅關係一樣-經濟學運用科學方法研究人類分配有限資源嘅過程,而機制設計就會運用經濟學得到嘅知識,務求設計出適當嘅政策,令人類有足夠嘅誘因做出政策制定者想佢哋做嘅決策[1][2]。機制設計又有叫掉轉博弈論(reverse game theory)-博弈論分析做嘅係由一個經濟環境嘅規則,預計決策者會做出乜行為,而機制設計就掉返轉,做嘅嘢係由「想要嘅行為」做起點,再思考要制定乜嘢規則先可以引誘人做出呢啲行為[3]。
想像幅附圖:附圖左上角嘅空間 包含可能採取嘅行動同策略,而右上角嘅空間 X 包含可能嘅報償, 函數講明每個行動或者策略 嘅相應報償, 代表機制設計者向博弈者傳達嘅資訊, 代表個博弈環境,均衡狀態 要設計成達到某啲特定嘅 。
步驟
[編輯]做機制設計嘅步驟大致上如下[4]:
- 定義是次機制設計嘅目的,想要引誘人做出乜行為;
- 由每個個體嘅角度出發,用博弈論思考嗰個個體嘅效益(utility)函數係乜樣,當中可以涉及行為經濟學嘅考量(例:, 代表個人做理想行為會得到嘅滿足感, 同 等代表已知會影響滿足感嘅因素),得出一個描述個體行為嘅數學模型;
- 運用微積分等嘅數學技術,計吓柞因素( 同 等)要設成乜數值,先可以令個人做出理想行為嘅機率最大化(,假設 最大化等如個人會做理想行為嘅機率都最大化)-如果柞因素係政策制定者有權力控制嘅,噉就可以得出一個「要採取乜行動」嘅具體計劃。
