research on human judgment. They conceptualized the idea of the “heuristics and biases” program – that judgment under uncertainty Often rests on a limited number of simplifying heuristics rather than extensive algorithmic processing. Gigerenzer criticized Kehneman and Tverskys research stating that humans are capable of processing more complex algorithms than what Kehneman and Tversky were giving homage to. Thus a debate of what the cognitive capacity is and the deviations between normative models

Availability bias can be somewhat confusing when information is subjective (Vozza‚ 2015). If you’re asked to evaluate your own performance relative to the performance of others‚ for example‚ most people will rate their own contribution to be higher‚ because that is the information they have most available. It is much easier to recognize Bias in people other than ourselves (Traub‚ 2013). I believe I have a strong cultural and personal aversion to self-promotion‚ this has affected me at my former

What is social cognition? Social cognition is how we interpret‚ analyse‚ remember and use information about the social world (Baron et al.‚ 2009)‚ making decisions every day and dealing with a great amount of information. The majority of decisions made are based on beliefs regarding the likelihood of uncertain events. Sometimes‚ beliefs concerning uncertainty are expressed in numerical form as odds or subjective probabilities. Therefore‚ the question of ‘how do people assess the probability of an

rule of thumb to make judgments and decisions easier‚ known as heuristics. Availability heuristics are defined as using the strength of association to estimate the frequency or probability of an event‚ based on how easily the associations can be brought to mind. Basically‚ one is making decisions based on what easily comes to mind‚ and if something is available in memory‚ it is more likely to be remembered. Although availability heuristics have some benefits‚ it also has some disadvantages that can

This mind bug happens when you are given events and which event gets more media coverage and you hear more about you assume it must happen more.
