Accessibility-Diagnosticity and the Multiple Pathway Anchoring and Adjustment Model
نویسنده
چکیده
I discuss how the Multiple Pathway Anchoring and Adjustment model is similar to and different from the Feldman and Lynch accessibility-diagnosticity model, elaborated as an anchoring and adjustment model by Lynch, Marmorstein, andWeigold. Cohen and Reed’s concept of representational sufficiency embraces both attitude coherence and retrieval fluency; these map to prior operationalizations of diagnosticity in past accessibility-diagnosticity research. Cohen and Reed’s functional sufficiency maps closely to Lynch et al.’s notion of a comparison of cumulative diagnosticity to a diagnosticity threshold in an anchoring and adjustment process. I identify differences between the two models and call for research to distinguish their predictions.

A Multiple Pathway Anchoring and Adjustment (MPAA) Model of Attitude Generation and Recruitment
The Multiple Pathway Anchoring and Adjustment (MPAA) model integrates prior research on attitude formation, accessibility, strength, and attitude-behavior relationships and responds to key challenges to the traditional view of attitudes as enduring predispositions that guide behavior. The MPAA model emphasizes multiple pathways to attitude formation, including outside-in (object-centered) and i...
متن کاملExploring intention to reuse recommendation agents from accessibility-diagnosticity perspective: the moderating effect of domain knowledge
Recommendation agents help users reduce information overload and improve decision quality. Yet, many online shoppers have negative reaction or have no motivation to use recommendation agents, since they have no idea of whether users can achieve their shopping goals with less effort. We think information is fundamental to using recommendation agents. This study develops a research framework from...

متن کاملAre adjustments insufficient?
Many judgmental biases are thought to be the product of insufficient adjustment from an initial anchor value. Nearly all existing evidence of insufficient adjustment, however, comes from an experimental paradigm that evidence indicates does not involve adjustment at all. In this article, the authors first provide further evidence that some kinds of anchors (those that are self-generated and kno...
متن کاملThe effect of accuracy motivation on anchoring and adjustment: do people adjust from provided anchors?
Increasing accuracy motivation (e.g., by providing monetary incentives for accuracy) often fails to increase adjustment away from provided anchors, a result that has led researchers to conclude that people do not effortfully adjust away from such anchors. We challenge this conclusion. First, we show that people are typically uncertain about which way to adjust from provided anchors and that thi...
