The Perceived Importance Model of Group Decision Making: Interdependent Information, Hidden Profiles, Assignment of Expertise, and Time Pressure
… team member can be a critical resource in group decision making, but studies have found that this information is often not mentioned to the team. The Perceived Importance Model of team decision making is presented, which asserts that perceptions of the importance of information items influence …

Decision making in the absence of conscious awareness
… processed information influences our decisions has been a particularly controversial question over the past decade. This thesis investigates whether information processed in the absence of a stimulus—or of conscious awareness of a stimulus—can influence decision accuracy. Using a …

Use of Integrated Process Control Displays in Work System Design
… display alternatives of control chart data on decision performance and mental workload. The control charts were shown as multiple two dimensional displays, a composite two dimensional display, and a composite three dimensional perspective display. Multiple two dimensional displays were found to …

Locus of control and going-concern judgements : the mediating effect of nondiagnostic information and decision aid availability
… examining the influence of information type and decision aid availability (and their interaction with each other and with locus of control) on this task. In examining the influence of locus of control on going concern assessment, the study makes a significant original contribution to the extant …

The design of a HSMM-based operator state monitoring display
… monitoring display is designed to function as a decision support tool (DST) for the supervisor of a small team of operators (between 2 and 4 team members) that are each monitoring and controlling multiple highly autonomous heterogeneous unmanned vehicles (UVs). Such displays are important in …

The Use of an Enhanced Polygraph Scoring Technique in Homeland Security : The Empirical Scoring System --Making a Difference
… results are described in regards to criterion accuracy; diagnostic capability; proportions of correct, errors, and inconclusive results; and the difference in scoring accuracy based upon participant employment and experience. Twelve scorers in three cohorts scored 22 You-Phase examinations …

Self-awareness theory and decision theory: a theoretical and empirical integration
<p>The literatures on self-awareness theories and decision theories were reviewed separately and then integrated for the purposes of: (a) exploring possible applications of self-awareness to improve decision making; and (b) for extending research in the area of self-awareness to a decision making …

Integrated product and process development methodologies for environmentally conscious electronic products
… with increased modeling capability and decision accuracy. It considers the execution duration of processes and their time-varying characteristics. The timed methodology is applied to the life cycle development of flexible manufacturing systems (FMSs) and provides a new way to develop …

A Visual Approach to Information Systems: An Investigation of the Momentum of Accounting Wealth Changes
… collect the results. Subjects made prediction decisions based on the graphics produced for four companies. The companies were stratified based on size (high or low) and growth patterns (high or low). Each subject made predictions for one type representation for each of the four companies. …

Effects of Technological Support on Decision Making Performance of Distributed Groups
… data necessary to estimate the effects of decision support tools on the performance of distributed groups. Data was collected in a controlled experimental environment that simulated a geographically-dispersed meeting through the use of videoconferencing and group communication support …

Decision making in a decision support systems environment: an evaluation of spatial ability and task structure
Decision Support Systems (DSS) should increase the effectiveness of a decision and the efficiency of the decision making process. The success of DSSs has varied among individual users. One explanation for this variation is that individual’s spatial ability has a moderating effect on performance. …

Promotion and Prevention Fit Are Different but Lead to Equal Performance: Examining Fit Sensitivity and Task Performance
Regulatory focus theory encompasses promotion focus, seeking success and prevention focus, avoiding failure. These mutually exclusive focuses, when matched with the appropriate goal pursuit strategy, promotion with eager and prevention with vigilant, create a state of regulatory fit. This state of …

Automation bias and prescribing decision support – rates, mediators and mitigators
Purpose: Computerised clinical decision support systems (CDSS) are implemented within healthcare settings as a method to improve clinical decision quality, safety and effectiveness, and ultimately patient outcomes. Though CDSSs tend to improve practitioner performance and clinical outcomes, …
