The paper is a proposal of the triangulation of a theory basis for the behavioral stream in economic sciences that currently mostly uses a cognitive approach, by adopting a behavioristic and evolutionary perspective into that scope of reflection. A narrative literature review of scientific databases by means of Internet search engines based on the combinations of relevant keywords was used. The final selection included 37 articles and 21 monographs subjected to further analysis. The analysis showed that by adopting other perspectives than just a cognitive one into behavioral economics research can enrich theoretical and empirical foundations, provide new research tools, and enable discoveries on human economic behaviors. Evolutionary concepts also seem to gain in importance nowadays, especially in terms of neuroscientific methods used to investigate how the human brain functions. The combination of all three approaches seems quite promising and worth further development, as it may lead to not only uncovering the mechanisms underlying economic behaviors but also may help people to make better decisions. Thanks to the combination of the three approaches (paradigms) pictured together (which has not previously been present in the literature on the subject), the paper aims to inspire behavioral economic researchers to search for the theoretical basis of their scientific quest going beyond the cognitive canon, to facilitate embedding their studies in a proper paradigm or finding the relevant concept/theory, and also recognizing niche or complementary research areas. Therefore, the article adds to a discussion on the theoretical foundations of the stream and the process of shaping its scientific identity.

超越认知方法来研究经济科学中的行为流:行为主义和进化论的观点

这篇文章提出了对经济学中行为流的理论基础进行三角剖分的提议,该行为目前主要使用认知方法,方法是将行为主义和进化论观点纳入这一反思范围。使用基于相关关键字组合的互联网搜索引擎对科学数据库进行叙述性文献综述。最终的选择包括37篇文章和21篇专着进行进一步分析。分析表明,通过在行为经济学研究中采用不仅仅是认知观点的其他观点,可以丰富理论和经验基础,提供新的研究工具,并能发现人类的经济行为。如今,进化概念似乎也变得越来越重要,特别是在用于研究人脑功能的神经科学方法方面。这三种方法的结合看起来很有希望,值得进一步发展,因为它不仅可以揭示经济行为的潜在机制,还可以帮助人们做出更好的决策。由于结合在一起使用了这三种方法(范例)的组合(以前在该主题的文献中还没有出现过),因此本文旨在激发行为经济学研究人员寻找超越认知的科学探索的理论基础。规范,以促进将他们的研究嵌入适当的范式或找到相关的概念/理论,并认识到利基或互补的研究领域。因此,
