Research
My research has most recently been in the area of competitive strategies and negotiation. Much of this research uses the methods of experimental economics in which decision-makers are placed in a simulated decision environment and rewarded according to the effectiveness of the decisions that they make. Previous research was in operations research and energy modeling. Articles have been published in the American Economic Review, the Journal of Mathematical Psychology, the Journal of Economic Theory, the Journal of Economics, Behavior and Organizations, Canadian Public Policy, Operations Research, Decision Sciences and the Energy Journal, among others.
