Evolution and risky decisions.
Does the human mind possess domain-specific inference mechanisms for solving the sorts of problems that confronted our distant ancestors? In a recent paper, Rode et al. argue that human decision-making was shaped by an evolutionary history of foraging to include procedures for reasoning adaptively about risk. The task of demonstrating the adaptiveness of human decision-making would appear to be...
متن کاملDissociable Neural Processes Underlying Risky Decisions for Self Versus Other
Previous neuroimaging studies on decision making have mainly focused on decisions on behalf of oneself. Considering that people often make decisions on behalf of others, it is intriguing that there is little neurobiological evidence on how decisions for others differ from those for oneself. The present study directly compared risky decisions for self with those for another person using function...
متن کاملFraming effects and risky decisions in starlings.
Animals are predominantly risk prone toward reward delays and risk averse toward reward amounts. Humans in turn tend to be risk-seeking for losses and risk averse for gains. To explain the human results, Prospect Theory postulates a convex utility for losses and concave utility for gains. In contrast, Scalar Utility Theory (SUT) explains the animal data by postulating that the cognitive represe...
متن کاملTempus Fugit: Time Pressure in Risky Decisions
We study the effects of time pressure on risky decisions for pure gain prospects, pure loss prospects, and mixed prospects involving both gains and losses. In an experiment we find that risk aversion for gains is robust under time pressure whereas risk seeking for losses turns into risk aversion under time pressure. For mixed prospects, subjects become more loss averse and more gain seeking und...
متن کاملSequential processing of cues in memory-based multiattribute decisions.
When probabilistic inferences have to be made from cue values stored in long-term memory, many participants appear to use fast and frugal heuristics, such as "take the best" (TTB), that assume sequential search of cues. A simultaneous global matching process with cue weights that are appropriately chosen would mimic the decision outcomes, albeit assuming different cognitive processes. We presen...
