"Summary: In the international bestseller, Thinking, Fast and Slow, Daniel Kahneman, the renowned psychologist and winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics, takes us on a groundbreaking tour of the mind and explains the two systems that drive the way we think. System 1 is fast, intuitive, and emotional; System 2 is slower, more deliberative, and more logical. The impact of overconfidence on corporate strategies, the difficulties of predicting what will make us happy in the future, the profound effect of cognitive biases on everything from playing the stock market to planning our next vacation-each of these can be understood only by knowing how the two systems shape our judgments and decisions. Engaging the reader in a lively conversation about how we think, Kahneman reveals where we can and cannot trust our intuitions and how we can tap into the benefits of slow thinking. He offers practical and enlightening insights into how choices are made in both our business and our personal lives-and how we can use different techniques to guard against the mental glitches that often get us into troubl"

"Financial decisions across the lifespan brings together the work of scholars from various disciplines (family and consumer sciences, economics, law, finance, sociology, and public policy) to provide a broad range of perspectives on financial knowledge, financial decisions, and policies. For consistency across the volume each chapter follows a similar format : (1) what individuals know or need to know (2) how what they know or need to know affects financial decisions and outcomes (3) ways in which policies or programs or financial innovations can enhance their knowledge, or decisions, or outcomes. Contributors will provide both new and existing research to create a valuable picture of the state of financial literacy and how it can be improved."

"This study presents new microeconomic analyses of congestion-prone services that comprise most private and public services at the final consumption stage. It accounts for two distinctive features of congestion-prone services. The discrepancy between capacity and throughput, and service quality competition. To accommodate these features, a series of new decision-making theorems for consumers and suppliers is developed. The resulting demand and cost functions incorporate service time as the variable that reflects congestion and service quality. In market equilibrium, interactions between consumers and firms endogenously determine the industrial organization type of each firm and thus allow the coexistence of multiple industrial organization types in the same market. Efficiency of resource allocation is assessed by applying two different criteria: service quality diversity throughout the market and Pareto optimality in each submarket."

"This book explores and analyzes innovative methodologies and applications of research on the value of information. Based on papers commissioned for a workshop hosted in 2010 by resources for the future, the book offers answers to important questions : What is meant by "value of information"? When does information have value? What are the stateof-the-practice methods for ascribing value to information? The book examines applications in two disparate fields linked by the importance of valuing information: public health and space. Researchers in the health field have developed some of the most innovative methodologies for valuing information, used to help determine, for example, the value of diagnostics in informing patient treatment decisions. In the field of space, recent applications of value-of-information methods are critical for informing decisions on investment in satellites that collect data about air quality, fresh water supplies, climate and other natural and environmental resources affecting global health and quality of life. The contributors identify five discrete approaches at the frontier of methodological advances : price- and cost-based derivation, Bayesian belief networks, regulatory cost-effectiveness evaluation, econometric modeling and estimation and simulation modeling and estimation. The authors advance terms to describe what is meant by "value" (which need not be expressed in monetary terms) and identify steps to ascribe, measure, and communicate value. "

"Tesis ini meneliti mengenai peran traits kepribadian terhadap gaya pengambilan keputusan pada mahasiswa. Teori traits yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah Five-Factor Model of Personality (McCrae & Costa (1990), dengan lima buah faktor yaitu neuroticism, extraversion, openness to experience, agreeableness, dan conscientiousness. Gaya pengambilan keputusan adalah kecenderungan yang dimiliki seseorang dalam proses pengambilan keputusan dalam berbagai situasi (Scott & Bruce, 1995), dan terdiri dari gaya rasional, dependen, intuitif, avoidant dan spontaneous. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian kuantitatif dengan desain noneksperimental dan cross-sectional. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat korelasi yang signifikan antara traits kepribadian dan gaya pengambilan keputusan. Traits kepribadian juga memberikan kontribusi sebesar 10% hingga 23.3% terhadap munculnya gaya pengambilan keputusan.

The focus of this thesis is to study the role of personality traits in decision makingstyles in undergraduate students. The trait theory used in this study is the Five-Factor Model of Personality (McCrae & Costa, 1990), which consists of neuroticism, extraversion, openness to experience, agreeableness and conscientiousness. Decision making-style is defined as an individual's tendency to behave when faced with decision making process (Scott & Bruce, 1995), and consists of rational, intuitive, dependent, avoidant and spontaneous styles. This study is a quantitative research with a non-experimental and cross-sectional design. This study shows that there are significant correlations between personality traits and decision making-styles. Furthermore, personality traits also contribute, between 10% to 23.3%, to the emergence of decision making-styles."
