Algebraic Language

Some problems in the behavioural and physical sciences arise in the context of an incomplete knowledge of the fine detail of underlying practical situations. This paper presents a general mathematical framework for the discussion of such problems. This framework provides an algebraic language for the discussion of ecological analysis in the social sciences, aggregation in economics and macroscopic descriptions in statistical physics. Here, however, only the mathematical framework is presented; detailed applications will be presented elsewhere.

Abstract. Factorial survey experiments are increasingly used in the social sciences to investigate behavioral intentions. The measurement of self-reported behavioral intentions with factorial survey experiments frequently assumes that the determinants of intended behavior affect actual behavior in a similar way. We critically investigate this fundamental assumption using the misdirected email technique. Student participants of a survey were randomly assigned to a field experiment or a survey experiment. The email informs the recipient about the reception of a scholarship with varying stakes (full-time vs. book) and recipient’s names (German vs. Arabic). In the survey experiment, respondents saw an image of the same email. This validation design ensured a high level of correspondence between units, settings, and treatments across both studies. Results reveal that while the frequencies of self-reported intentions and actual behavior deviate, treatments show similar relative effects. Hence, although further research on this topic is needed, this study suggests that determinants of behavior might be inferred from behavioral intentions measured with survey experiments.
