Description
Summary:Objectives Analysis of cognitive processes in the field of sub-actual illusions Material and methods Economic psychology is concerned with the study of consumer and economic mechanisms. It is a field that includes the empirical study of both behaviour and economic decisions. It also deals with the formulation of descriptive theories, i.e. theories that describe these behaviours and decisions. Results The main objective of the thesis is to present the elements of perception of tax reality through the prism of nominal and real rates, taking into account elements of behavioural psychology. An additional aim of the thesis is to present the market reactions of taxpayers to taxation taking into account the principle of fairness of taxation. Induction was used as the main research method. It consists in drawing general conclusions or establishing regularities on the basis of an analysis of empirically established phenomena and processes. It is a type of inference based on details about the general properties of a phenomenon or object. Conclusions The analysis of the literature on the subject and the results of our own research have shown that economics and psychology, in methodological terms, enter into different kinds of relationships with each other. The best solution for the knowledge that arises from the joint research of economists and psychologists is to create a relationship of a transdisciplinary nature. Mainly because this provides an opportunity to delineate new research areas while maintaining the autonomy and methodological identity specific to each discipline. Analysing the design of the tax system, we will not find one that is based on such a value as trust in the taxpayer himself. On the other hand, resistance to paying taxes will always be related to the reluctance to pay taxes itself (tax resistance).
