The central theme of the KD²School is the design of biosignal-adaptive systems for decision-making processes in economic contexts. This theme focuses on the investigation of human decision-making processes under the influence of various factors from the external environment and internal (cognitive and affective) states, and, based on this, on the design of human-centered information systems that adapt to the current context, state, characteristics, and needs of the individual based on multimodal data and biosignals.

Within this central theme, we pursue the following objectives:

1. Excellent training of doctoral candidates who independently conduct interdisciplinary research in the field of investigating and designing biosignal-adaptive systems for decision-making processes, and are thus exceptionally well-qualified for the national and international academic and professional job market.
2. Development and evaluation of new procedures and methods for the collection, processing, interpretation, and integration of biosignals into decision-making processes.
3. Utilizing biosignals to gain a deeper understanding of how individual and team decisions are influenced by the interaction between humans and information technology in economic decision-making contexts.
4. Designing, implementing, and evaluating biosignal-adaptive systems for individuals and teams in economic decision-making contexts.
5. Gaining a deeper understanding of how individual and team decisions are influenced by subjective and objective factors in various contextual constellations.
