28 August 2020
The aim of this project is to identify the interactions and links between the planning fallacy and optimism bias, by looking at possible ways to mitigate the effects of cost and schedule overruns in the context of project estimations. This will be done through online experiments involving a few questionnaires and a 3D building tool.
