Series 1, Episode 34: Do teams and groups discriminate differently to individuals? With Professor Vessela Daskalova, University College Dublin

The impact of bias on individual decision making has been widely explored, yet we actually do not know so much about how bias and discrimination happen in teams and groups. In this episode of Brain for Business, Brain for Life, behavioural economist Professor Vessela Daskalova of University College Dublin, tells us about her own experimental research into role of social identity and the “in-group/out-group” bias in group decision making.Professor Vessela Daskalova is an Assistant Professor of economics at University College Dublin, a Fellow at the Geary Institute for Public Policy, and Associate Faculty at Toulouse School of Economics. As a researcher in the areas of Behavioural and Experimental Economics, Microeconomic Theory, and Political Economy, Professor Daskalova focuses on the areas of discrimination, social identity, and bounded rationality. As part of this, much of her research is dedicated to trying to better understand decision making in both individual and strategic/collective decision making situations.For more information visit: www.vesseladaskalova.com Hosted on Acast.
