Using a Critical Incidents approach, 600 drivers were called upon to identify the bases of decisions to drink and drive. In an unstructured interview, each driver descnbed the bases for decisions leading to specific instances of impaired driving, including decisions regarding participation in drinking events, transportation to events, plans prior to and following initiation of drinking, activities while drinking, leaving the drinking event, and transportation following drinking. Over 12,000 individual decision bases were descended. While the bases were highly specific to the individual decisions, those involving the social environment exerted the strongest influence, followed in decreasing order by influences of a personal nature, the occasion giving rise to drinking, economic considerations, plans already made, and usual patterns of behavior. Results evidenced the need for 1) friends, hosts and sellers of alcohol to avoid inadvertent encouragement to over-consumption of alcohol and driving while impaired, 2) better planning in providing alternatives to drinking as well as driving, and 3) helping drinkers and those around them to redefine what they perceive as their "responsibilities" with respect to situations leading to alcohol impaired driving.

This book examines the phenomenon of autonomous driving, and the ongoing, complex, costly, and contentious quest to automate driving. It is organized around the concept of algorithmic decision-making, with a particular focus on the ‘advance decisions’ necessary to automate driving, and driving decisions as rudimentary as turning a corner, merging onto a motorway, or stopping at traffic lights. The author investigates how mapping, sensing, and machine learning capabilities are gifted to autonomous vehicles through the technical work performed by an array of actors in multiple locations: from users of advanced driver assistance devices enthusiastically serving as volunteer data collectors, to graduate students developing computational solutions in university research initiatives, and from software developers running computer simulations at big tech firms to their counterparts at autonomous vehicle start-ups overseeing active robotaxi services. This book intends to complicate, and question, typical understandings of autonomous driving by going ‘under the hood’, challenging the determinism, or ‘technological decisionism’, that advocates depend on to offer their vision of an inevitable, fully automated, future. It will appeal to scholars and students in the fields of Science and Technology Studies, media studies, digital sociology, human geography, mobilities and transport studies, and digital methodologies.

This title provides managers, executives and other professionals with an innovative method for critical decision-making. The book explains the reasons for decision failures using the Law of Unintended Consequences. This account draws on the work of sociologist Robert K. Merton, psychologists Amos Tversky and Daniel Kahneman, and economist Herbert Simon to identify two primary causes: cognitive biases and bounded rationality. It introduces an innovative method for “test driving” decisions that addresses both causes by combining scenario planning and “what-if” simulations. This method enables professionals to learn safely from virtual mistakes rather than real ones. It also provides four sample test drives of realistic critical decisions as well as two instructional videos to illustrate this new method. This book provides leaders and their support teams with important new tools for analyzing and refining complex decisions that are critical to organizational well-being and survival.

This book contains selected papers presented at the 1998 conference on Naturalistic Decision Making (NDM). The objectives of the conference were to: *make American researchers more aware of NDM research being conducted abroad, particularly in Europe; *connect NDM research with work in management and industry, to stretch beyond the military and paramilitary focus; and *formulate a more explicit connection between NDM and expertise. These objectives are reflected in the chapters of this volume.

Big Data driving decisions with direct impact on the real-world: this is the deep transformation ahead of us.With billions of humans connected through mobile and fixed networks, the challenge is now shifting to connecting things in a meaningful way. This is what Big Data, enabled by Machine to Machine connectivity, is all about:-making sense of all bits of knowledge acquired in real time, digested, processed, retrieved, understood through Analytics.-building a decision and action process, based on the result of this analysis.-feeding back to the real-world commands or actions.This book will take you through use cases, technologies, economics of big data, with a review of policy and regulation which comes into play at the cross-roads of society and business, individuals, organisations, and government.

Examining how changing conditions in the Mediterranean Region have affected the decisions of those considering migrating from Sub-Saharan Africa to or through the Region, this book represents an important and overdue contribution to international policy-making and academic discourse. In current discussions relating to this migration phenomenon, the complexity of individual decision-making is often left unacknowledged, so that subsequent policy responses draw upon simplified models. In this volume, individual decision-making takes central stage by bringing together chapters that demonstrate very different types of decision-making frameworks. In this project, it is highlighted that people move for a variety of reasons such as being affected by conflict and insecurity, by economic pressures, and by desire for other forms of enrichment. Throughout, the book’s contributors find that events in the Mediterranean cannot be considered alone in understanding migration decision-making from Sub-Saharan Africa, but as part of an increasingly complicated global system not encompassed by one simplified theory or by looking at one regional context in isolation. Knowing why individual people are moving and how they decide upon which routes to take can help to ensure policy that promotes safer travel options, or makes genuine alternatives to migration available.
