the field of cognitive psychology has increasingly provided scientific insights to explore how humans are subject to unconscious sources of evidentiary bias, leading to errors that can affect judgement and decision-making. increasingly these insights are being applied outside the realm of individual decision-making to the collective arena of policy-making as well. a recent editorial in this jou...

This paper aims to investigate the impact of heuristic biases on decision making individual investors’ who are actively trading Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE). Most studies focus well-developed financial markets and very little is known about behaviour in less developed or emerging markets. The present study contributes filling this gap literature. Investors’ have been measured using a five-point...

An open challenge for single-molecule electronics is to find stable contacts at room temperature with a well-defined conductance. Common coinage metal electrodes pose fabrication and operational problems due to the high mobility of the surface atoms. We demonstrate how molecules covalently grafted onto mechanically robust graphite/graphene substrates overcome these limitations. To this aim, we ...

Anchoring effects--the assimilation of a numeric estimate to a previously considered standard--are typically described as very robust and persistent. Based on the assumption that judgmental anchoring involves a hypothesis-testing process in which judges actively seek and generate judgment-relevant target knowledge, it was assumed that anchoring effects might at the same time be fairly malleable...

The paper discusses the numerical optimization design of anchoring end of prestressed cable at some hydropower station. There are two types of designing for the anchoring end, namely using square thick steel anchor bearing plate or using the roundtower anchor bearing plate. By the numerical calculation, the anchoring end using the round-tower anchor bearing plate can match the space and mechani...

DAGGRE was part of a program that began in 2010 as a multi-team forecasting challenge sponsored by IARPA. To harness the “wisdom of crowds”, researchers built an online combinatorial prediction market for predicting events of interest to the U.S. intelligence community. Prediction markets have a long history (See Rhode & Stumpf, 2004.), and their value is described at length by Surowiecki (2004...

Background: Behavioral finance deals with the study of psychological influences on investors and financial markets. Investors commonly perform investment analysis through fundamental technical analysis. The behavior market originates from principles decision-making that explains reasons behind buying selling stocks. 
 Objectives: This paper aims to examine effect cognitive biases decisions...

BACKGROUND Cognitive biases and personality traits (aversion to risk or ambiguity) may lead to diagnostic inaccuracies and medical errors resulting in mismanagement or inadequate utilization of resources. We conducted a systematic review with four objectives: 1) to identify the most common cognitive biases, 2) to evaluate the influence of cognitive biases on diagnostic accuracy or management er...
