I wonder why adoption is so slow:

"I would say that neuroeconomics is about 90 percent neuroscience and 10 percent economists," says Colin F.

"We've taken a lot of mathematical models from economics to help describe what we see happening in the brain. But economists have been a lot slower to use any of our ideas."
