The Dynamic Decision Making Laboratory (DDMLab) was founded in 2002 by Dr. Cleotilde Gonzalez to investigate decision making in complex, dynamic environments: situations in which individuals make multiple interdependent decisions while the environment changes in real-time. Examples of contexts studied in the lab include military command and control, resource allocation tasks, and supply-chain management.

At the DDMLab, we seek to build models and methods that will help explain, predict, and draw recommendations for improving decision making in dynamic situations. We use multiple research methods, including laboratory experiments with complex, dynamic simulations, field observation and data collection, cognitive modeling, and functional Magnetic Resonance Imagery (fMRI).

The laboratory consists of post-doctoral fellows, research-programmers, doctoral students, and research assistants. Lab members come from different fields, including Behavioral Decision Research, Psychology, Engineering, and Computer Science.
