Hybrid brainstorming is ecologically more valid than all-interactive or all-noninteractive brainstorming, yet understudied. Although ideational benefits of hybrid groups have been found, studies have rarely focused on its affective/motivational contributions or ability to select ideas. In a randomized experiment, noninteractive-then-interactive (hybrid) groups perceived (1) higher goal clarity, engagement, and task attractiveness, and (2) chose more quality ideas than all-noninteractive groups. Additionally, (3) given the instruction for both hybrid and all-noninteractive conditions to be critical in idea selection, participants individually selected ideas that were more useful, thus overall higher quality, than the nonselected.

Correll et al. introduced value-suppressing uncertainty palettes (VSUPs): bivariate color palettes that encode the value of a datapoint and its uncertainty, where the datapoint's value is suppressed at higher levels of uncertainty by combining cells in the palette using a tree structure. These tree VSUPs do not suppress uncertainty monotonically (i.e., higher uncertainty for the same value does not guarantee equal or greater suppression), potentially leading to sub-optimal decision-making. This paper introduces two alternative VSUP algorithms that (1) use monotonic uncertainty suppression and (2) are grounded in statistical and perceptual perspectives on uncertainty: shrinkage VSUPs and perceptual VSUPs. These techniques allow incorporation of domain and task-relevant knowledge to answer questions like, how much value should we suppress due to uncertainty---or should we suppress value at all?

Abstract This study examined whether the Foreign-Language effect, an increase in bilinguals’ rate of rational decisions to moral dilemmas in their foreign versus their native language, is influenced by emotion and the modality in which the dilemmas are presented. 154 Dutch–English bilinguals were asked to read and listen to personal and impersonal moral dilemmas in Dutch or in English. Importantly, the reading task had the character of a self-paced reading task to resemble the listening task as closely as possible. In both modalities, participants’ task was to indicate whether the proposed action was appropriate or not. Results showed that the Foreign-Language effect was present for personal dilemmas only. In addition, an effect of modality demonstrated that participants took overall more rational decisions during the listening than the reading task. These findings give insight in the interplay between language, emotion and task demands, revealing that moral decision making is context-dependent.

Theories of perceptual decision-making have been dominated by the idea that evidence accumulates in favor of different alternatives until some fixed threshold amount is reached, which triggers a decision. Recent theories have suggested that these thresholds may not be fixed during each decision, but change as time passes. These collapsing thresholds can improve performance in particular decision environments, but reviews of data from typical decision-making paradigms have failed to support collapsing thresholds. We designed three experiments to test collapsing threshold assumptions in decision environments specifically tailored to make them optimal. An emphasis on decision speed encouraged the adoption of collapsing thresholds – most strongly through the use of response deadlines, but also through instruction to a lesser extent – but setting an explicit goal of reward rate optimality through both instructions and task design did not. Our results provide a new explanation for previous findings regarding decision-making differences between humans and non-human primates.

Dinas Kelautan dan Perikanan are elemental Local Government executor at naval area and fishery and on hands to Regent via Region secretary. Dinas Kelautan dan Perikanan having task is region autonomy at naval area and fishery covers sumberdaya's management fishery and naval, coast and isle in order to perform pembantuan's decentralisation and task task. Fishery area and Catches is one of area in on duty naval and fishery that services in makings and Fisherman Card exploit. Therefore fishery Area and Catches to have gets to give prima service and can in cards harnessed management fisherman to fishermen on the nose utilised and correct objective. One of effort which can be done is increase and do harnessed information system repair fisherman card with computerised and integrated system to be able to give information in point and accurate basal succeeding decision making.
