Information Design and Presentation Cre SO
4 Strategies and Performance
By: Benjamin Batinge
The System Dynamics Group, University of Bergen
RESULTS
METHODOLOGY
@ A model (with modifications) on the Boom
and Bust, and failure to learn in
experimental markets experiment by Paich
and Sterman (1994) was developed for the
experiment.
@ A two-treatment approach where the same
information but different design interfaces
for treatment 1 and treatment 2 was
provided to subjects in treatments 1 and 2
respectively in order to determine whether
there will be significantly different
performance levels in the two treatments.
INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUND
presentation in a
Millions
i
a
@ Information design and
Management flight simulator Is relevant to
people interacting with it to grasp the
complexities in the underlying model.
@ The purpose of this study therefore is to
determine whether or not information
design and display affects decision-making
process, strategies, and ultimately result in
better outcome.
@ This study examines the effects of
information design and presentation on
people’s decision-making strategies and
performance in a complex non-repetitive
decision-making environment.
@ study uses a boom and bust model for the
experiment as it exemplifies a dynamic
decision making scenario.

HYPOTHESIS
HO: “Distinction in information design and
presentation/display does not have an effect on
decision-making strategies and performance”
H1: “Distinction in information design and
presentation/display affects decision-making
strategies and performance” is supported by
the
results.
H2: An improvement in information design and
presentation/display helps decision-makers to
understand the system complexi
plexity and
better. ; a
period
CONCLUSIONS
@The study concludes that, the way information
is designed has an effect on the decision
strategies and performance.
@in order to reduce the decision-making
challenges in complex dynamic environment,
and adopt near-optimal strategies for
maximum performance, the information
organization, design, and display/presentation
is very essential for logical decision strategies
and increased performance.
@The null hypothesis (HO) is rejected and whiles
H1 & H2 are supported by the findings.

inflow starts at the same amount as the outflow but decreases over time
The inflow and the outflow are related to each other as shown in the

Students built a model to depict the population dynamics on Easter Island.

Students designed a paper/pencil model for the game and created policy
