Decision making
A viewer's existing beliefs can prevent accurate reasoning with data visualizations. In particular, confirmation bias can cause people to overweigh information that confirms their beliefs, and dismiss information that disconfirms them. We tested whether confirmation bias exists when people reason with visualized data and whether certain visualization designs can elicit less biased reasoning strategies. We asked crowdworkers to solve reasoning problems that had the potential to evoke both poor reasoning strategies and confirmation bias.

Decision-makers across many professions are often required to make multi-objective decisions over increasingly larger volumes of data with several competing criteria. Data visualization is a powerful tool for exploring these complex ‘solution spaces’, but there is little research on its ability to support multi-objective decisions. In this paper, we explore the effects of visualization design and data volume on decision quality in multi-objective scenarios with complex trade-offs.

This dataset refers to the case study performed in the paper "A Real Options Market-Based Approach to Increase Penetration of Renewables", submitted to IEEE Transactions on Smart Grid. The file contains the Midcontinent ISO data used for the day-ahead prices, as well as the wind data from NREL's Wind Integration National Dataset Toolkit which was used to estimate the renewable productions in the case study.

There are 3 data files in total for this data set, 1 for Experiment 1 and 2 for Experiment 2. The File Experiment 1.csv contains 12 matrices for Experiment 1, which are the opinions of the decision makers with the pairwise comparison of alternatives in the form of the linguistic preference relations. The File Experiment 2-1.csv contains 51 matrices, which denote the opinions of the decision makers with the pairwise comparison of alternatives in the form of the Linguistic Discrete Region.
