Personal Information

Scott E. Page is an Associate Professor and Senior Associate Research Scientist at the Center for Political Studies, external faculty Member of the Santa Fe Institute and Associate Director of the Center for the Study of Complex Systems. Professor Page studies mathematical and computational models of economic and political institutions. His main interests are in the study of how diverse groups of decision-makers can outperform more homogeneous groups of decision-makers, and how political institutions can aggregate preferences efficiently, even in the presence of complicated preference structures among voters. He is involved in projects on diversity in problem solving and in modeling problem difficulty and complexity. He is particularly interested in the interplay between characteristics of the environment, i.e. difficulty and complexity, and the performance of economic and political institutions.
