1. J.S. Armstrong said that "Better predictions of how other parties will respond can lead to better decisions." One way of handling such predictions is with the modeling technique called Game Theory, such as that used by Bruce Bueno de Mesquita (see interview at https://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/mon-september-28-2009/bruce-bueno-de-mesquita, or his book, The Predictioneer's Game: Using the Logic of Brazen Self-Interest to See and Shape the Future). How might you build this into your BI system?

In particular, identify a specific feature for the DSS that would be impacted by the decision making style issues discussed by Piaget. It might be an issue with the user interface, how the modeling, or the data component. Identify the feature, how you would operationalize it, and how it illustrates Piaget decision making model.
