On March 27, one of the pioneers of psychology and economics research, Daniel Kahneman, passed away. Kahneman was a psychologist who spent a large part of his career at Princeton University. He did some of his best known work with Amos Tversky, a mathematical psychologist who passed away in 1996.
No stranger to fame
Kahneman and Tversky made substantial contributions to the field of judgement and decision-making, which deals with how human beings make choices in different situations. They published a series of pioneering research papers in the 1980s that integrated insights from psychology and economics to better understand human behaviour at large.
