Decision-making in teams can be accomplished by including varying levels of team member opinion. This study considers two styles of group decision-making, consensus building and single leader decision-making with input from the team, in structured design selection tasks. The role of decision-making style in the speed of decision-making, team member satisfaction, and decision quality are examine...

Short abstract Past experimental studies of decision-making in the context of the Newsvendor problem unanimously find that the decision-makers tend to make suboptimal decisions and, unless special measures are taken to induce “in-task” learning, fail to improve quality of their decisions over time. However, most of these past studies dealt with individual decision-makers. In the present study w...

Decision-making has been a subject actively investigated in several areas of knowledge such as Philosophy, Economics, Psychology, Computer Science, among others. This paper explores the potential opportunities offered by two methodologies to assess the team decision-making at the end of a simulated exercise (training). We present a case study showing how to measure the team decision-making comb...

This paper develops a robust and distributed decision-making procedure for mathematically modelin 9 and computationally supporting simultaneous decision-making by members of an engineering team. The procedure (1) treats variations in the design posed by other members of the design team as conceptual noise; (2) incorporates such noise factors into conceptually robust decision-making; (3) provide...

Invasion team sports coaches are faced with the problem of developing players who, in any given situation, can make decisions that lead to successful outcomes. Research into human decision making has established three widely accepted perspectives, which coaching used understand player and inform practice: information processing, ecological psychology , naturalistic . As a result, challenged per...
