PSYC 39906. JUDGMENT AND DECISION MAKING This class covers irrational behavior and biases people display in their reasoning and decisions, drawing from cognitive, social, and developmental psychology, as well as neuroscience. Many cognitive biases involve misinterpretation of numeric information--often causing harmful outcomes, but occasionally beneficial. When possible, well cover how best to address these biases to improve decisions, with applications to medicine, health, law, consumer behavior, and economics.
