Some of the most famous were revealed by & Kahneman's -sponsored research. It's summarized in this unclassified 1977 technical report: apps.dtic.mil/sti/citations/AD

I admire scientists who do research useful enough for institutions of high-stakes decision-making to pay for it.

Hand-annotated cover pages of an unclassified report by Amos Tversky and Daniel Kahneman.
The acknowledgements section of the report, disclosing DARPA sponsorship.
