Synopsis
Excerpt from Decision Support Systems and the Marginal Economics of Effort
However, the argument of this paper is that the marginal economics of effort are such that a dss or any similar aid may impose costs that outweigh the perceived gains because existing incremental or heuristic strategies are extremely cheap. Managers have an investment in methodologies that have been reasonably effective, so that it may be difficult for any system to generate substantial enough improvements in decision outcomes to justify the cognitive strain imposed. A dss will be accepted mainly because it provides adeguate benefits for low incremental effort.

Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the economics of effort that impact how individuals interact with decision support systems (DSS). The author posits that the subjective cost of these systems relative to their perceived benefits is a significant determinant of whether or not individuals will adopt them. The author identifies several categories of cognitive effort that can affect this decision, including computation, specification, inference, search, and assimilation. The book examines how DSS can be designed to reduce the cost of these efforts, thereby making them more likely to be adopted and used effectively. The book also discusses the broader implications of DSS for individual problem-solving, suggesting that they can encourage individuals to move toward deeper levels of analysis and make better decisions. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
