Do Causal Beliefs Influence the Hot-Hand and the Gambler’s Fallacy?
An open problem in the study of randomness perception is why, given the same sequence of independent and equiprobable events, sometimes people exhibit a positive recency effect (hot hand fallacy) and sometimes a negative recency effect (gambler's fallacy). In this paper we provide evidence of the role of causal belief about the source generating the sequence in predicting the next outcome. Peop...
متن کاملJudgment Error in Lottery Play: When the Hot-Hand Meets the Gambler’s Fallacy
We demonstrate that lottery players can be influenced to believe erroneously in the existence of “hot” numbers, where past winning numbers are perceived to have a greater probability of winning in future draws, even though past and the future events are independent. The existence of this “hot-hand” effect in lottery games is surprising, as works by Clotfelter and Cook (1993) and Terrell (1994) ...
متن کاملGambler’s fallacy, hot hand belief, and the time of patterns
The gambler’s fallacy and the hot hand belief have been classified as two exemplars of human misperceptions of random sequential events. This article examines the times of pattern occurrences where a fair or biased coin is tossed repeatedly. We demonstrate that, due to different pattern composition, two different statistics (mean time and waiting time) can arise from the same independent Bernou...
متن کاملFrom a fixation on sports to an exploration of mechanism: The past, present, and future of hot hand research
We review the literature on the hot hand fallacy by highlighting the positive and negative aspects of hot hand research over the past 20 years, and suggesting new avenues of research. Many researchers have focused on criticising Gilovich et al.’s claim that the hot hand fallacy exists in basketball and other sports, instead of exploring the general implications of the hot hand fallacy for human...
متن کاملSecond language feedback abolishes the "hot hand" effect during even-probability gambling.
Research into language-emotion interactions has revealed intriguing cognitive inhibition effects by emotionally negative words in bilinguals. Here, we turn to the domain of human risk taking and show that the experience of positive recency in games of chance-the "hot hand" effect-is diminished when game outcomes are provided in a second language rather than the native language. We engaged late ...
