It covers computer technology as well as human aids to building analyses and some fast and frugal tricks for more consistent decision making.Behavioural studies have shown that while humans may be the best decision makers on the planet we are not quite as good as we think we are. We are regularly subject to biases inconsistencies and irrationalities in our decision making. Decision Behaviour Analysis and Support explores perspectives from many different disciplines to show how we can help decision makers to deliberate and make better decisions. It considers both the use of computers and databases to support decisions as well as human aids to building analyses and some fast and frugal tricks to aid more consistent decision making.

This provides a valuable resource for managers with decisionmaking responsibilities and students from a range of disciplines including management engineering and information systems.List of figures: List of tables: List of case vignettes: List of abbreviations and notation: Preface: Acknowledgements: 1.
