Research Scientists

Joseph Arvai, Ph.D.

is a research scientist at Decision Research and a Professor of Judgment and Decision Making within the Environmental Science and Policy Program at Michigan State University. He is also affiliated with MSU's Cognitive Science Program.  His research focuses on the process of individual and group decision making across a wide variety of risk contexts.

Arvai's work has two main objectives. First, it focuses on how people make decisions both as individuals and in groups largely in the absence of formalized decision support.  Informed by this work, the second objective of his research is to develop and test decision aids that can be used by people to improve decision quality across a variety of contexts.
