  1. The Power of Dynamic Thinking Reaching Across Boundaries in Default Aversion

  2. Will that doctor be sued? • What is the number one determinant – identified by statisticians and actuaries – as to whether or not a doctor will be sued?

  3. Keeping It Simple Isn’t Always Right Static Model: Doctor Treats Patient Doctor Makes A Mistake Doctor Sued

  4. Will that doctor be sued? • Q: What is the number one determinant – identified by statisticians and actuaries – as to whether or not a doctor will be sued? • A: The amount of time that a doctor spends with that patient • Gladwell, M. (2007). Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking

  5. Dynamic Thinking • Static thinking is a formalized process that depicts events but does not address the underlying forces (dynamics) that may have an impact on that event or series of events.  • Dynamic thinking is the study of the interconnected relationships on an event and the impact of those interactions upon the outcomes of the system.

  12. What are the dynamic forces that affect student loan default? • Failing classes: positive correlation with default • Number of credit hours (mixed results): negative correlation with default • Whether or not they work outside of school (mixed results): negative correlation with default • GPA: negative correlation with default • Feelings about school/education: negative correlation with default • Graduate: negative correlation with default
