Research summary

Stephen B. Broomell studies how people make decisions and judgments, especially under uncertainty, including how individuals reason about scientific evidence, forecast future events, and combine expert opinions or crowd estimates. His work also develops mathematical and statistical tools for modeling behavior, such as methods for aggregating forecasts (the 'Joint Weighted Average' operator) and analyzing compositional data. Much of this research blends psychology with quantitative modeling and applies to real-world topics like climate perception, risk communication, and public health beliefs.
