Hi Mises

I have a question regarding experimental economics. Are they considered to be post-positivist, as they make their analyses on an empirical basis, yet they cant make their observartions on a controlled basis, as there are other factors which they cant control for (e.g. if they wanted to find out whether the minimum wage had an effect on employment).

Also I have a question if there are any economics who favor a construtivistic approach?
