Synopsis

This book examines the psychological factors that influence human judgment and explores the methods used to improve the accuracy and consistency of subjective probability encoding. It is of particular relevance to decision-makers, risk analysts, and psychologists alike, presenting a framework for understanding and evaluating different probability assessment techniques. The author proposes decomposition as a potentially effective approach for reducing inconsistency and provides a detailed analysis of its benefits and limitations. Through a psychometric measurement perspective, the book examines the reliability of decomposition and direct assessment of probabilities, offering recommendations on how to utilize decomposition for error control. By investigating the impact of decomposition on the reliability of probability assessments, this book advances the understanding of probability encoding processes and contributes to the improvement of decision-making practices.
