The de Finetti Prize recognizes outstanding work by new researchers in the area of decision making.

​

• The PhD student should be the sole or first author and the work should be mainly that of the student. If co-authored, the paper is accompanied by a signed statement (PDF) from the co-author(s) to the effect that the student is credited as the primary source of ideas and the main author of this paper;

• The paper can be either published or unpublished at the moment of submission for the de Finetti competition. There is no longer a requirement that the paper be unpublished.

• Submissions in dissertation format will not be considered, but articles based on a dissertation are encouraged.

• Only one paper may be submitted per applicant;

• Only PhD students who did not have their PhD at the time of the last SPUDM conference (August 2017) are eligible.

• We will be using blind review. To do this, we ask for two versions of the submitted paper: an anonymous and a non-anonymous version.

  • The anonymous version should be formatted as a manuscript (i.e., not a published journal article) with figures and tables integrated into the text. Please remove with names, affiliations, and author notes removed for blind review.

  • The non-anonymous version should contain names, affiliations, and author notes and can be formatted however the author chooses.
     

The papers will be evaluated by a committee appointed by the Board of EADM consisting of Tim Pleskac (chair), Johann Majer (previous award winner), Ellen Peters, Tim Rakow, Tomás Lejarraga, Ilana Ritov.

To be considered for this award, papers and statements should be submitted before Friday, March 29, 5:00 PM Central U.S. Daylight Time. Please submit the papers at this link: https://kusurvey.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_eanKRMTwn9EdECF
