  • Abstract
    Subjective probability estimates underly many decision techniques and project evaluation methods used in R&D. Recent research efforts of others in the study of subjective probability have resulted in methodological developments that may have useful R&D context. It is suggested that such may improve personal probability assessments, and, under some circumstances, may be useful in evaluating the relative assessment performances of the different assessors.
