Título: Neurocognitive Sources of Misperception of Feedbacks in Managerial Decisions

Autores: Juan Pablo Torres y René San Martin 

Abstract: This article explores some cognitive sources of misperception of feedback in dynamic environments. Operational Research and Management Science (ORMS) literature has highlighted two key failures, which explain misperception of feedback: Stock-flow failure and failure to account for time delays. We develop a cognitive neuroscience experiment based on the traditional beergame to understand how the brain processes the stock and flow signals. We recorded and analysed brain electrical responses to the presentation of stock and flow information in an adapted version of the classical beer game. Our preliminary results suggest that, neurally, participants process stock and flow information differently in terms of their recruitment of both attentional and reward-processing circuits in the brain. We discuss how this might be a source of misperception of feedback.

El seminario se llevará a cabo a las 13:00 hrs en la sala T504 de la FEN. Se solicita confirmar asistencia con Madeleine Ulloa (madulloa@fen.uchile.cl) a más tardar el día martes 26 de diciembre de 2017 a las 13:00 horas, ya que el seminario contempla almuerzo.

Atentos saludos,
