Research

My research contributes to the psychology of decision-making, risk and uncertainty, and thinking. My work focuses on how individuals communicate and interpret uncertainty, draw conclusions based on uncertain information, and how judgments, decisions, choices, problem-solving and innovation are shaped by individuals' motivations, mode of thinking (intuitive or deliberative) and the way information is distributed in their environment. Currently, I am working on a 2-year research project funded by the Wellcome Trust examining how expert reviewers make judgments about research proposals.
