Research Interests

Dr. Vancouver’s research focuses on developing and testing computational models of human/environment interactions. These models can be simulated to create predictions of human behavior over time. The predictions are then tested against data obtained from the protocols represented in the environmental elements of the models. The models are based on control theory formulations of self-regulation. They are used to explain decision making and resource allocation (e.g., how one allocates time) when goals conflict and circumstances change.

A second, related line of research focuses on the role of beliefs in goal processes (e.g., adoption, planning, striving, and revision). In particular, Dr. Vancouver has been focusing on expectancy beliefs (e.g., self-efficacy). Generally, the higher the relative expectancy regarding a set of behaviors, the greater the likelihood that a goal will be adopted and a set of behaviors will be exhibited. On the other hand, during goal striving, higher expectancies can lead one to allocate fewer resources toward the behavior than lower expectancies. This might reduce performance, though if the expectancies reflect true contingencies (i.e., they are well calibrated), this allocation effect is efficient and may not adversely affect performance. Delineating these effects, and developing a model of human information processing that explains them, is the purpose of this line of research. Rcently, Bandura (2012) criticized Dr. Vancouver’s research in this area. See his response to that criticism (Vancouver, 2012).
