Executive decision-makers: a scenario-based approach to assessing organizational cyber-risk perception

iranian english learners’ perception and personality: a dual approach to investigating influential factors on willingness to communicate

abstract previous studies on willingness to communicate (wtc) have shown the influence of many individual or situational factors on students’ tendency to engage in classroom communication, in which wtc has been viewed either at the trait-level or situational level. however, due to the complexity of the notion of willingness to communicate, the present study suggests that these two strands are ...

Risk Perception, Risk Attitude and Decision : a Rank-Dependent Approach

The classical expected utility model of decision under risk (von NeumannMorgenstern, 1944) has been criticized from an experimental point of view (Allais’ paradox) as well as for its restrictive lack of explanatory power. The RankDependent Expected Utility model (RDU) model (Quiggin, 1982) attempts to answer some of these criticisms. The decision maker is characterized by two functions: a utili...

A Robust Scenario Based Approach in an Uncertain Condition Applied to Location-Allocation Distribution Centers Problem

The paper discusses the location-allocation model for logistic networks and distribution centers through considering uncertain parameters. In real-world cases, demands and transshipment costs change over the period of the time. This may lead to large cost deviation in total cost. Scenario based robust optimization approaches are proposed where occurrence probability of each scenario is not know...

Toward an Information Theoretic Approach to Managing Multiple Decision Makers

Citizen science and human computation involves working with multiple, untrusted decision makers. We demonstrate how Bayesian Classifier Combination outperforms a naive Bayes method when classifying documents using unreliable crowdsourced labels. We also present methods for screening workers and selecting informative documents to label. Finally, we explain how the Bayesian Classifier Combination...
