Scientific Work[edit]

Her research interests include futures research, the methodology of complex socio-economic forecasting, the reliability of forecasts, future orientation, the socio-economic future of Hungary and responsibility for the future. She further developed and was the first to apply the cross-impact method in Hungary. In her academic doctoral dissertation, she demonstrated using a multidisciplinary model that economic and environmental strategies support each other only under certain conditions. She and her colleagues interpreted the concept of future orientation and made an attempt to measure it based on empirical studies. She studied the behavior of complex dynamic systems and recognized the futures significance of chaos theory. She studied the chaotic behavior of Hungarian macro-processes with fellow researchers. She developed a methodology formulating “acceptable” future alternatives for socio-economic development. When outlining the socio-economic situation of Hungary in 2025, She developed complex scenarios and future alternatives, applying the principles of complexity, participativeness and alternativity. The list of scientific papers includes 101 scientific articles (including 18 articles in foreign journals, 7 Web of Science publications), 62 books (including 12 textbooks, monographs, 29 edited books), 89 book chapters, and 57 conference papers, for a total of 430 scientific papers.
