Journal of Behavioral Decision Making (JBDM)
Journal Descriptions
The Journal of Behavioral Decision Making was launched in 1988 and has since become an important venue for high-quality research on human decision processes. Published five times per year by John Wiley & Sons, it focuses on understanding how people make choices, both in experimental settings and in real-world contexts. It covers a broad array of topics central to decision science, including cognitive and emotional influences on decisions, decision biases, judgment under risk and uncertainty, the interplay between psychological mechanisms and economic behavior, and the effects of social context on choice. Its interdisciplinary character makes it relevant not only to psychologists but also to scholars in behavioral economics, management science, marketing, and public policy. The journal includes empirical articles, methodological studies, and theoretical contributions that seek to explain not just what decisions people make but how and why. Many studies published in the journal use experimental designs, advanced quantitative modeling, and behavioral economic paradigms to investigate fundamental questions about decision behavior. Because it bridges basic research and applied insights, the journal’s work often informs approaches to improve decision quality in domains such as health, finance, organizational management, and public policy. This blend of rigorous psychological investigation and real-world relevance contributes to its status as a leading journal in behavioral decision research.
