Information environment and cognitive decision processes

该项目的目标是进一步开展认知生态学决策方法的理论和实证研究，并建立一个领先学者网络和青年科学家密集交流网络。与传统的行为决策研究将理性定位在人的头脑中不同，认知生态方法为许多既定的发现提供了另一种解释，并产生了新的预测，指出了环境对理性决策的限制。这些新发现具有耐人寻味的理论含义，它们为现代信息社会的紧迫问题提供了实际上重要的答案。这是一个幸运的前提，该领域的许多顶尖科学家愿意就所描述的项目进行合作。该项目将包括一项青年科学家培训计划，并建立一个有效的网络。将作出不同的努力，不仅向专家，而且向更广泛的公众介绍结果。

The goal of this project is to further theoretical and empirical research on a cognitiveecological approach to decision making and to establish a network of leading scholars and an intensive exchange of young scientists. Unlike traditional research on behavioral decision making, which locates rationality in the human mind, the cognitive-ecological approach offers alternative explanations for many established findings and generates novel predictions that point out environmental constraints on rational decision making. These new findings have intriguing theoretical implications, and they offer practically important answers to urgent questions of the modern information societies. It is an auspicious precondition that many leading scientists in this area are willing to collaborate on the depicted project. The project will include a young scientist training program and establish an effective network. A distinct attempt will be made not only to present the results to experts but also to a broader public.
