Correct acceptance weighs more than correct rejection: a decision bias induced by question framing.
We propose that in attempting to detect whether an effect exists or not, people set their decision criterion so as to increase the number of hits and decrease the number of misses, at the cost of increasing false alarms and decreasing correct rejections. As a result, we argue, if one of two complementary events is framed as the positive response to a question and the other as the negative respo...
متن کاملInsight solutions are correct more often than analytic solutions.
How accurate are insights compared to analytical solutions? In four experiments, we investigated how participants' solving strategies influenced their solution accuracies across different types of problems, including one that was linguistic, one that was visual and two that were mixed visual-linguistic. In each experiment, participants' self-judged insight solutions were, on average, more accur...
متن کاملMake the correct decision mutually.
I am excited to have you read this month’s PointCounterpoint feature. The topic is “Congenitally missing maxillary lateral incisors: Substitution vs restoration.” I invited 2 experienced teams to discuss this topic from 2 perspectives. Each team did an outstanding job in presenting their arguments favoring one approach or the other. And I am certain that, as you read the Point and then the Coun...
متن کاملA Correct-by-Decision Solution for Simultaneous Place and Route
To reduce a problem, provided in a human language, to constraint solving, one normally maps it to a set of constraints, written in the language of a suitable logic. This paper highlights a different paradigm, in which the original problem is converted into a set of constraints and a decision strategy, where the decision strategy is essential for guaranteeing the correctness of the modeling. We ...
متن کاملMore Advice on Proving a Compiler Correct: Improve a Correct Compiler
As an alternative to the classical approach to the compiler correctness problem where a given compiler is proved correct from scratch, we propose a method for deriving correct compilers from a denotational semantics via a series of reenements. Each such optimization step corresponds to an eeciency improvement in the corresponding compiler. Our technique combines the standard initial algebra sem...
