I carry out experimental research into judgment and decision making. I am particularly interested in how people use their judgment to forecast, monitor and control the behavior of systems. For example, colleagues and I have documented a number of ‘biases’ in the way people make judgmental forecasts from time series data. My other research interests include advice-taking and trust in advisors, the role of feedback in improving judgments and decisions, and calibration of subjective probabilities and confidence judgments.
