Anchoring in Numeric Judgments of Visual Stimuli
This article investigates effects of anchoring in age estimation and estimation of quantities, two tasks which to different extents are based on visual stimuli. The results are compared to anchoring in answers to classic general knowledge questions that rely on semantic knowledge. Cognitive load was manipulated to explore possible differences between domains. Effects of source credibility, mani...
متن کاملNumeric Judgments under Uncertainty: The Role of Knowledge in Anchoring
Three studies demonstrate that anchoring effects—the assimilation of a numeric estimate to a previously considered standard—depend on judges’ knowledge about the target object. Manipulating judges’ knowledge by varying the context in which a fictitious target is presented, Study 1 demonstrates that anchor plausibility determines how a given anchor is processed and depends on what knowledge base...
متن کاملAssimilation and contrast effects of anchoring stimuli on judgments.
In complex social communication the introduction of reference points may produce two opposing effects. Under some conditions the introduction of a reference point or stand beyond S's current position tends to move him toward the new position. Thus, telling him that experts think it will be at least 10 yr. before peaceful use of atomic power is feasible, may cause an individual to increase his o...
متن کاملAn fMRI study of human visual cortex in response to spatiotemporal properties of visual stimuli
ABSTRACT Background: The brain response to temporal frequencies (TF) has been already reported, but with no study reported for different TF with respect to various spatial frequencies (SF). Materials and Methods: fMRI was performed by 1.5T GE-system in 14 volunteers during checkerboard, with TFs of 4, 6, 8 and 10Hz in low and high SFs of 0.5 and 8cpd. Results: Average percentage BOLD signa...
متن کاملNumeric Competencies and Anchoring Biases
Two experiments were conducted to examine the role of three facets of numeracy (objective (ONS), subjective (SNS), and symbolic number mapping (SMap)) in three anchoring tasks (experimenter-given, self-generate, and valuation). We found that the three numeric competencies were associated with different anchoring tasks. SMap was associated with none of the three anchor tasks, while ONS consisten...
