Research Panel Presentations and Discussion
| 9:55 a.m. | Panel 1: Forecasting and Anticipatory Thinking |
| This panel will discuss methods of improving the accuracy of human forecasts from large, dispersed crowds. In addition, it will cover research on anticipatory thinking or mental simulations, planning, and preparing for events. What differentiates experts from novices in both of these domains? What aspects of these skills can be trained? How can people be prepared to forecast and think about a broad range of possible futures, especially low probability, high impact events? | |
| How is research in this area likely to progress in the near future? What research questions need to be addressed? What new methodologies and tools are available? |
|
| Moderator: Sallie Keller, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University | |
| Barbara Mellers, University of Pennsylvania Title: Returns to precision |
|
| Gary Klein, MacroCognition LLC Title: Challenges for engaging in anticipatory thinking |
|
| Alyson Wilson, North Carolina State University Title: Prediction and anticipatory thinking |
|
| 10:45 a.m. | Discussion and Q&A Moderators, Presenters, and Members of the Committee on a Decadal Survey of Social and Behavioral Sciences for Applications to National Security |
| 11:45 a.m. | LUNCH |
| 12:45 p.m. | Panel 2: Trust |
| This panel will consider the state of the science on trust in three respects: What is known about an individual’s level of trust with respect to data and sources; with respect to automated analyses—output of machines and models; and with respect to people. |

| 2:45 p.m. | Panel 3: Perceptual and cognitive constraints on and aids for analysis and presentation |
| This panel will consider the state of the science on perception and cognition as it applies toward how individuals make sense of information. How do they deal with massive amounts or high dimensional data? What techniques can be used to reduce or analyze data to information that can be used for anomaly detection or decision making? What is known about presentation to make information more memorable? Do certain forms of presentations play into people’s biases? | |
