    Happy 20th anniversary to Decision Analysis! I published an editorial reviewing some of the most influential and heavily cited/downloaded articles https://pubsonline.informs.org/doi/abs/10.1287/deca.2024.editorial.v21.n1.

    The authors of those papers also contributed informal commentaries about why they think their work was of so much interest to readers, and what they had hoped to achieve by writing. Read their commentaries at https://pubsonline.informs.org/page/deca/deca-at-20, with open-access links to the papers!

    Common themes over the years included applications of #decisionanalysis, foundational methodology papers, #behavioral decision theory, #homelandsecurity, #cybersecurity, #group decisions, #socialmedia, and #sustainability.

    Many thanks to the past editors of Decision Analysis -- founders Bob Clemen and Don Kleinmuntz, Robin Keller, and Rakesh Sarin -- along with a large cast of associate editors, editorial-board members, and our many prompt and thoughtful reviewers!

    Please consider submitting to Decision Analysis! Most papers have extremely short times to first review.
