A Note on Negativity Bias and Framing Response Asymmetry
An “unprocessed risk” is collection of simple lotteries with a reduction-rule that describes the actual-payoff to the decision-maker as a function of realized lottery outcomes. Experiments reveal that the willingness to pay for unprocessed risks is consistently biased towards the payoff-level in the unprocessed representation. The “anchoring-to-frame” bias in cases of positive framing is signif...
متن کاملNegativity Bias, Negativity Dominance, and Contagion
We hypothesize that there is a general bias, based on both innate predispositions and experience, in animals and humans, to give greater weight to negative entities (e.g., events, objects, personal traits). This is manifested in 4 ways: (a) negative potency (negative entities are stronger than the equivalent positive entities), (b) steeper negative gradients (the negativity of negative events g...
متن کاملNegativity Bias in Dangerous Drivers.
The behavioral and cognitive characteristics of dangerous drivers differ significantly from those of safe drivers. However, differences in emotional information processing have seldom been investigated. Previous studies have revealed that drivers with higher anger/anxiety trait scores are more likely to be involved in crashes and that individuals with higher anger traits exhibit stronger negati...
متن کاملResponse bias affects perceptual asymmetry scores and performance measures on a dichotic listening task.
A dichotic listening paradigm discussed by Sidtis and Bryden (Neuropsychologia, 1978, 16, 627-632) allows one to present non-verbal as well as verbal material. This paradigm also permits signal-detection analyses to separate response biases from discrimination abilities. The present study used Sidtis' (Neuropsychologia, 1981, 19, 103-112) Complex Tone Task as an example of the paradigm. Employi...
متن کاملNegativity bias in attribution of external agency.
This research investigated whether people are more likely to attribute events to external agents when events are negative rather than neutral or positive. Participants more often believed that ultimatum game partners were humans rather than computers when the partners offered unusually unfavorable divisions than unusually favorable divisions (Experiment 1A), even when their human partners had n...
