}Objective: We investigated how the order in which information is presented affects when a person decides to stop performing a task. Background: A stopping decision is a decision to stop performing a task on the basis of a sequence of cues. Previous order-effects models do not account for how these contexts limit available working memory for making such decisions. Method: Participants decided how long to perform a task known as the Work Hazard Game that began by rewarding points but later cost…

Survey of patients of the Tver region of Russia regarding maggots and maggot therapy
- MedicineInternational wound journal

Nearly 60% of subjects considered the images of maggots to be more repulsive than images of gangrenous wounds, which indicates that much education and support will need to be conducted to address patient fears and anxiety if patients are to be comfortable with a maggot therapy programme.

Information Order and Outcome Framing: An Assessment of Judgment Bias in a Naturalistic Decision-Making Context

Using a simulation of state-of-the-art ship defensive systems operated by experienced, active-duty U.S. Navy officers, there is no evidence of a framing bias, while task load had a minor, but systematic effect, which is consistent with a judgment bias.

Reasoning the fast and frugal way: models of bounded rationality.
- Computer SciencePsychological review

The authors have proposed a family of algorithms based on a simple psychological mechanism: one-reason decision making, and found that these fast and frugal algorithms violate fundamental tenets of classical rationality: they neither look up nor integrate all information.
Risk as Feelings

It is shown that emotional reactions to risky situations often diverge from cognitive assessments of those risks, and when such divergence occurs, emotional reactions often drive behavior.

Investigation of workload during dynamic decision making in terms of its dependence on both task workload and cognitive abilities shows that high workload is more detrimental in individuals with low cognitive abilities than in Individuals with high cognitive abilities.
