CASSEL is the California Social Science Experimental Laboratory: a joint project of UCLA, Caltech, and the National Science Foundation. The laboratory consists of 70 subject workstations (expandable to 120), and will be open to researchers in the social sciences, including experimental economics, finance, political science, sociology, anthropology and marketing. It draws from a large, diverse group of UCLA undergraduates as subjects. Because of its large size, CASSEL will address questions about learning, preferences, and the behavior of groups that cannot be examined in smaller labs. As well as an on-site laboratory, CASSEL will conduct web based experiments.
