Modeling Sociocultural Influences on Decision Making: Understanding Conflict, Enabling Stability de Joseph V. Cohn

Modeling Sociocultural Influences on Decision Making: Understanding Conflict, Enabling Stability: Human Factors and Ergonomics

Editat de Joseph V. Cohn, Sae Schatz, Hannah Freeman, David J. Y. Combs
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 dec 2019
In our increasingly globally interconnected world, understanding and appreciating the sociocultural context within which individuals make their decisions is critical to developing successful partnerships. The collection of chapters in this volume illustrates how advances in information and social media technologies, as well as modeling and simulation tools, combined with the social sciences, can be leveraged to better understand how sociocultural context influences decision making.


The chapters in this volume were contributed by leading experts from academia, industry, and government and provide:




  • Insights into cross-cultural decision making based on recent international events, with grounding in an historical context


  • Discussions of cutting-edge modeling techniques used today by professionals across multiple organizations and agencies


  • Descriptions of specific cross-cultural decision making tools designed for use by laypeople and professionals


  • Case studies on the role of cross-cultural decision making grounded in current events and (in many cases) military applications.

Champaign in 1993. He earned his PhD in neuroscience from Brandeis University in 1998.


He has coauthored more than 100 publications and presented talks to national and international


professional conferences on a host of topics, ranging from foundational neuroscience


to the nature of technical innovation. He has coedited a three-volume book series


focusing on all aspects of training system development and a single-volume book on


enhancing human performance in high-risk environments. He has received industry and


professional society awards for his research across the spectrum of the human performance


and biomedical sciences. He cochaired the Applied Human Factors and Ergonomics


Association’s Cross-Cultural Decision Making Conference from 2013 to 2015 and is a fellow

Recenzii

"The structure of the book is excellent and gives a framework for organizing ideas in this complex area. Hopefully books like this will by a catalyst for more work in the area and a further maturation of the models and what we can use them for."
— Rudolph Darken, Naval Postgraduate School, USA
"I think this book will impact current and future work in the areas that form the intersection of applied social science, computer science, and sociocultural methods. It provides an integrated stance on very complex social and computational issues while retaining a sense for practical application. The book offers a nice blend of theoretical, methodological, and application-focused chapters that will aid a reader in learning about sociocultural topics and applying cutting-edge methods to the real-world issues. The editors have successfully compiled a diverse set of experts to explore very challenging issues that have very real implications for the military, and more broadly, the global business and social domains."
— Joseph B. Lyons, Air Force Research Laboratory, USA

Descriere

Cross Cultural Decision Making seeks to understand the impact that a variety of influences including geographical, historical, sociological, organizational, team, and technology have on an individual's decision making processes. This book proposes to explore how advances in information and social media technologies, as well as modeling and simul
