Study Notes

  • Heuristics are quick decision-making rules used when cognitive resources are limited or when rational decision-making is not possible.
  • They are often used when people need to make quick decisions and the outcome is not very important.
  • Heuristics can lead to correct judgments but also to biases and cognitive distortions.
  • The representativeness heuristic categorizes cases based on how well they match the category's features.
  • The representativeness heuristic can lead to biases, such as the dilution effect.
  • The dilution effect occurs when additional irrelevant information weakens the strength of the initial information.
  • People tend to value information more if they had to work to obtain it.
  • Information that is obtained through effort is more likely to be used in decision-making.
  • The decision-making process involves two phases: determining which options are viable and making a decision within that narrowed selection.
  • Withholding a product's advantages until the options are narrowed down can increase its perceived value.

Test your knowledge of heuristics and decision-making biases with this informative quiz! Learn about the representativeness heuristic and how it can lead to biases, such as the dilution effect. Discover why people tend to value information more if they had to work to obtain it and how withholding a product's advantages can increase its perceived value. Challenge yourself to understand the two phases of the decision-making process and how heuristics can affect it. This quiz is perfect for anyone interested in psychology, decision-making
