Research Interests I study the development of cognitive structures, and especially of so called "Naive Theories", theories held by lay people in domains where they do not have the benefit of formal teaching. My interest is less in the specific contents than in the cognitive mechanisms that account for the organization of knowledge and its limitations, its development in children and its break-down in pathology. In terms of contents, I work on Economic psychology, Decision making, Medical Psychology. Functions Director - Center for Decision Making and Economic Psychology at Ben-Gurion University Associate Editor of the Journal of Economic Psychology President-Elect, International Association for Research in Economic Psychology
