Our mission
JDM Lab is committed to research, consultancy, and dissemination activities to improve the well-being of both people and society at large.
Our mission is to improve the quality of the decisions that people make.
Our research areas
Decades of research in psychology and behavioral economics demonstrated that our decisions are systematically biased and that, as individuals, we are very bad at predicting what will make us happy.
Everyone makes mistakes when deciding, even experts.
