Webinar: "Can I really use an experiment for that?"
Date/Time: July 7th 9am AEST (or July 6th 7pm EST/4pm PST)
The use of experiments to collect data is increasingly popular in operations and supply chain management but our field is still only skimming the surface of experimental methods relative to other fields. This discussion will focus on the unique challenges we still face in operations management when using experimental methods - such as how to simulate real managerial decision making, and what we should consider doing to improve the reliability of our experimental design. We will also draw from other fields such as marketing and discuss some of the problems that field has already considered (and we should know of). We will spend time discussing different uses for experiments, how and why to conduct multi-stage or multi-method experiments, and briefly cover in-depth approaches to decision making such as discrete choice. Participants are encouraged to share their questions and fears about the methodological opportunities of using experiments. The panel will talk for 45 mins followed by a question and answer session.
Presenters: Stephanie Eckerd, John Aloysius, Harmen Oppewal
