摘要

Biases continue to be an important aspect of human judgment and decision makingrnbecause they can lead to unfavorable outcomes. Optimism bias is one type of bias that is oftenrnoverlooked because of its association with good health and positive outcomes. However, thernexistence of optimism bias in human judgment can be very damaging especially when it distortsrna person’s view of future events.rnIn order to better understand optimism bias we explore the benefits and downsides of optimismrnas well as some empirically-based origins of both optimism and pessimism. This provides arnbackdrop for a methodology for quantifying optimism and pessimism using the Brier scorerndeveloped for calibrating weather reporters and a discussion about how sports bookies makernwell-calibrated decisions. Results are explored from an optimism survey given to a cohort ofrneighty systems engineers, which ultimately portray the degree to which optimism bias influencesrndecision making in large projects. Further exploration of the key differences in optimism acrossrnprofessions helps distinguish motivational factors and characteristics of well-calibratedrnprofessions. We also present results from a calibration exercise, designed to infer if suchrnactivities can be adopted to assist systems engineering estimation. Finally, we providernprescriptive advice on how individual decision makers can better manage their optimism andrnbecome more realistic.
