A Study of the Effects of Quantitative Training

Abstract

In this study, two groups of subjects, one with advanced quantitative training, the other with little or no quantitative training, were exposed to an interactive-decision simulation gaming model to test, experimentally, possible effects of quantitative training. The findings show that the quantitative group achieved a higher level of game-performance but were unable to justify why gaming decisions were necessary. Other conclusions identify possible areas of weakness in quantitative training methodology.
