Decision-making after continuous wins or losses in a randomized guessing task: implications for how the prior selection results affect subsequent decision-making

A hybrid decision making system using DEA and fuzzy models for supplier selection in the presence of multiple decision makers

A Multi-Criteria Decision Making for Location Selection in the Niger Delta Using Fuzzy TOPSIS Approach

Making an informed decision with regards to a suitable business location or site selection for organizations is becoming challenging for business decision makers globally; and even more challenging in business environment that are saddled with uncertainties. The continues raise of multiple criteria variation of site preferences has also necessitated the application of advanced decision making t...

Error affect inoculation for a complex decision-making task.

Individuals bring knowledge, implicit theories, and goal orientations to group meetings. Group decisions arise out of the exchange of these orientations. This research explores how a trainee's exploratory and deliberate process (an incremental theory and learning goal orientation) impacts the effectiveness of individual and group decision-making processes. The effectiveness of this training pro...

How Prior Probability Influences Decision Making: A Unifying Probabilistic Model

How does the brain combine prior knowledge with sensory evidence when making decisions under uncertainty? Two competing descriptive models have been proposed based on experimental data. The first posits an additive offset to a decision variable, implying a static effect of the prior. However, this model is inconsistent with recent data from a motion discrimination task involving temporal integr...

An investigation of how prior beliefs influence decision - making under uncertainty in a 2 AFC task

The two-alternative-forced-choice (2AFC) paradigm is the workhorse of psychophysics, used widely in fields ranging from neuroscience to economics. The data obtained from the 2AFC task is used to compute the just-noticeable-difference (JND), which is generally assumed to quantify sensory precision, independent of a subject’s beliefs (their prior) and how they represent uncertainty. However, this...
