Barbara Fasolo- Why do we make good and bad decisions? Lessons from Behavioural Science

Individual decisions that have long-term implications for well-being often seem simple – health and lifestyle choices, financial planning and others – but research demonstrates there is a much more complicated background to decision-making. We all recognize these dilemmas in everyday life - should we choose the risky option or the sure thing? Should we aim for larger future gains or smaller immediate gains? How should we make rational decisions in uncertain times? Should we trust gut feelings? This public event will examine the latest research informing this important academic discipline which spans economics, psychology, decision science and management theory, and sheds light on the complexities of human behavoiur when it comes to making decisions.
