Behavioral theories of organizational decision making highlight the importance of decision rules for information aggregation, which are used to combine individuals’ evaluations of alternatives into collective choice. We examine how resource constraints affect the ability to make effective decisions with aggregation rules, including majority voting, averaging opinions, and delegating to experts. Using a series of computational experiments, we find that which rule is best depends on how an organization uses scarce resources to improve members’ knowledge of alternatives (accuracy resources) and include them in decisions (inclusion resources). By demonstrating the interdependence of resources and aggregation rules, we draw attention to the resource costs required to harness collective wisdom in organizations. We discuss implications for research on information aggregation and the design of organizational decision architectures and outline new directions for research.

集体智慧的成本:资源如何影响组织决策中的信息聚合

组织决策的行为理论强调了决策规则对于信息聚合的重要性,该规则用于将个人对替代方案的评估结合到集体选择中。我们研究了资源约束如何影响使用汇总规则(包括多数表决,平均意见和委托专家)进行有效决策的能力。通过一系列计算实验,我们发现哪个规则最好取决于组织如何使用稀缺资源来提高成员对替代方案(准确性资源)的了解,并将其包括在决策中(包含性资源)。通过演示资源和聚合规则的相互依存关系,我们提请注意在组织中利用集体智慧所需的资源成本。
