Center for Decision Research

Center for Decision Research

The Center for Decision Research [http://www.chicagocdr.org/] is an interdisciplinary center devoted to research and teaching on how people make decisions and judgments (see e.g. Society for Judgment and Decision Making). This field of study draws on cognitive and social psychology, economics, sociology, statistics, and other disciplines to understand how individuals and groups make decisions. Researchers at the Center study the processes by which intuition, reasoning, and social interaction produce beliefs, judgments, and choices. These topics have important applications in a range of contexts, including management, marketing, finance, and public policy. The Center's activities include a weekly research workshop, the distribution of a research paper series, and the maintenance of the Decision Research Laboratory for the conduct of behavioral research studies.
