Much of his early work concerned the foundations of measurement.
He was co-author of a three- volume treatise," Foundations of Measurement"( recently reprinted).
His early work with Kahneman focused on the psychology of prediction and probability judgment; later they worked together to develop prospect theory, which aims to explain irrational human economic choices and is considered one of the seminal works of behavioral economics.
Six years after Tversky's death, Kahneman received the 2002 Nobel Prize in Economics for the work he did in collaboration with Amos Tversky.
( The prize is not awarded posthumously.)
Kahneman told" The New York Times" in an interview soon after receiving the honor:" I feel it is a joint prize.
We were twinned for more than a decade."
Tversky also collaborated with many leading researchers including Thomas Gilovich, Itamar Simonson, Paul Slovic and Richard Thaler.
