Welcome to the Decision Making for a Social World webconference.<\/p>\n

Through the information they transmit, the pressures they exert, the emotions they elicit, other people have an enormous impact on our decisions. Such social factors have not received all the attention they deserve in the study of decision making. But new trends in decision making are starting to fill this gap. The goal of this conference is to bring together some of the top researchers who are working to incorporate the social world into the study of decision making.<\/p>\n

Every two weeks or so, a new paper will be posted online. Everybody will be able to comment on the articles, with the authors joining the discussion.<\/p>\n

A more substantial introduction can be found here<\/a>, using reasoning as an example of a mechanism that can be better understood if we take into account its social function.<\/p>\n
