比较有经验的采购经理和学生解决报童问题时的表现,发现经理人同样存在向中心拉动的偏差,且利用信息和任务培训的能力并不优于学生。

Abstract

We compare how experienced procurement managers and students solve the newsvendor problem. We find that managers broadly exhibit the same kind of pull-to-center bias as students do. Also, managers use information and task training no better than students. The performance of managers is positively affected by the level of their education and their level in the organizational hierarchy. We discuss implications for theory and for how ordering might be improved in practice. This paper was accepted by Teck Ho, decision analysis.
