Abstract

Increasing cognition research in management science indicates the significance of leveraging cognitive science to improve decision making, however, litter research has been investigated in construction engineering management (CEM) community. This workshop aims to provide a forum to discuss the theoretical and practical framework for integrating cognition research into CEM to improve judgment and decision. Papers are collected from departments of construction management in top universities in China. These papers make valuable contributions to explore cognition research in CEM on different topics, such as knowledge transfer, management information system, decision making models and methods, and CEM education.
