From the Editors…
Abstract
This issue begins with two articles on the use of Bayesian methods in decision analysis. Müller, Berry, Grieve, and Krams present a Bayesian approach to the design of clinical trials, and Hazen and Huang develop a parametric sensitivity analysis based on large-sample Bayesian analysis. Also in this issue are articles by Paté-Cornell and Dillon, who discuss relationships between decision and risk analysis, and by Bickel, who investigates the topic of corporate risk aversion. This issue also marks the end of our term as the founding Editors-in-Chief of Decision Analysis with a brief discussion of the state of the journal, our hopes for the future, and our gratitude to all those who have supported the journal’s development.
