Использование опросов-самоотчетов в экономической науке: методологические барьеры и их преодоление

Аннотация

Проанализирована история использования в экономической науке опросов-самоотчетов с целью исследовать логику преодоления в последние десятилетия методологических барьеров, прежде ограничивавших применение таких данных в экономике. Рассмотрены два наиболее распространенных в науке типа данных опросов-самоотчетов: о субъективных ожиданиях, намерениях и установках; о субъективном благополучии, счастье и удовлетворенности жизнью. Сделан вывод, что основными причинами изменений можно считать произошедшие на рубеже веков в экономической науке трансформации: повышение престижа прикладных исследований («прикладной» поворот), фрагментацию дисциплины и снижение важности моделей рационального выбора по сравнению с экспериментальными и квазиэкспериментальными методами. Перспективы использования таких самоотчетов в экономике представляются многообещающими благодаря произошедшим методологическим трансформациям, усилению междисциплинарного сотрудничества и стремительному развитию методов сбора и обработки данных.
