To kick-start the blog, we are doing a series of interviews with people who have played an important role in shaping the history of the field as well as made significant contributions to judgment and decision-making psychology.

To compile the list, we asked members of the Early Career JDM Researchers Facebook community to vote for their top three researchers whose story they’d like to hear. Once we had a list, we emailed those who got the most votes and asked them same questions, and we’ll be posting them every couple of weeks on the blog.

We have a fantastic series lined up, with the first interviews coming up from  Hal Arkes, Chris Hsee, Jonathan Baron, John Payne and Richard Thaler. More interviews are also in the pipeline, but if you have any suggestions or want us to interview your research hero, we’d love to hear from you!

We hope that you will find the interviews as fascinating and inspiring to read as we have – these researchers’ experiences of the world of JDM will hopefully give you insights and inspiration that you can use in your own career.

Enjoy!
