Judgment And Decision Making Av David (London Metropolitan University) Hardman

<i>Judgment and Decision Making</i> is a refreshingly accessible text that explores the wide variety of ways people make judgments. It examines assessments of probability, frequency, and causation; as well as how decisions are rendered under conditions of risk and uncertainty. Topics covered include dynamic, everyday, and group decision making; individual differences; and the nature of mind and brain in relation to judgment and decision making. <br/><p>Offering up-to-date theoretical coverage, including perspectives from evolutionary psychology and neuroscience, this volume has everything a psychology student needs for BPS accreditation, whilst drawing out the practical applications for non-psychology students with plentiful examples from business, economics, sport, law, and medicine. The latest addition to the <i>BPS Textbooks in Psychology</i> series, this thorough text provides a succinct, reader-friendly account of the field of judgment and decision making.</p>
