Dry, Matthew; Lee, Michael D.; Vickers, Douglas; Hughes, Peter – Journal of Problem Solving, 2006
We investigated the properties of the distribution of human solution times for Traveling Salesperson Problems (TSPs) with increasing numbers of nodes. New experimental data are presented that measure solution times for carefully chosen representative problems with 10, 20, . . . 120 nodes. We compared the solution times predicted by the convex hull…

Lee, Michael D.; Paradowski, Michael J. – Journal of Problem Solving, 2007
We consider group decision-making on an optimal stopping problem, for which large and stable individual differences have previously been established. In the problem, people are presented with a sequence of five random numbers between 0 and 100, one at a time, and are required to choose the maximum of the sequence, without being allowed to return…
