MasFIRA: multi-agent-simulation on family dynamics and intra-family resource allocation
Abstract: "Structural family dynamics - partners' matching processes, stability of families, occurrence of divorces, and fertility - are handled quite differently within social sciences. While sociologists and psychologists primarily tend to investigate these topics with depth-grounded methods, economic theory and empirical approaches rely on comparably straightforward models of rational behaviour. Individuals ('agents') differ by endowments - talents, human capital stocks, property, integration in social networks, ... - and by their preferences. Most approaches abstract from these differences as economic models of household behaviour discuss the issues subjected by parameteriseable utility functions subject to endowment constraints held as general as possible. Therefore, economic models can come to unambiguous results of the optimisation problem of a prototype agent, but agents' behavioural heterogeneity is systematically neglected. This is the documentation of a demo-version of an agent-ba
