People often fail in controlling complex dynamic situations. Research on dynamic decision making serves the purpose of learning about how people come to think, learn and act in complex dynamic and opaque situations, where the general objective is to draw general conclusions about the nature of task and differences between people in learning and decision making. Dynamic decision making research differ from traditional decision making research by explicitly addressing issues of feedback in the task. For a definition of dynamic decision making see Brehmer (1992). Introducing concepts from systems offer new possibilities for research on dynamic decision making by presenting a framework for understanding real life systems. Systems dynamics also offer a possibility to provide transparency to complex microworlds, provides ideas on how to improve learning in and about complex dynamics systems and, finally, systems dynamics methodology can be used to ease microworld construction and improve aspects of ecological validity. The full version of this paper deal in more detail with the research on dynamic decision making and issues on the development of methods for understanding learning and decision making in and about complex dynamic systems.
