Attraction to similar options: The Gestalt law of proximity is related to the attraction effect. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2020 Previous studies have suggested that there are common mechanisms between perceptual and value-based processes. For instance, both perceptual and value-based choices are highly influenced by the context in which the choices are made.

Attract the best: The attraction effect as an effective strategy to enhance healthy choices. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2021 Every day, people make many food decisions without thinking, repeatedly falling for the unhealthy option instead of the healthy option. While making these mindless decisions, people often rely on heuristics.

The attraction effect in motor planning decisions [PDF]
Judgment and Decision Making, 2015 In motor lotteries the probability of success is inherent in a person's ability to make a speeded pointing movement. By contrast, in traditional economic lotteries, the probability of success is explicitly stated.

Effortful Processing Reduces the Attraction Effect in Multi-Alternative Decision Making: An Electrophysiological Study Using a Task-Irrelevant Probe Technique [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2019 The attraction effect in multi-alternative decision making reflects the context-dependent violation of axioms that are considered fundamental to rational choice.

The attraction effect and its explanations [PDF]
Games and Economic Behavior, 2020 The attraction effect violates choice consistency, one of the central assumptions of economics. I present a risky choice experiment to test it and disentangle some of its explanations. I find the attraction effect, but in a smaller magnitude than previously thought.

The Attraction Effect in Information Visualization [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, 2017 The attraction effect is a well-studied cognitive bias in decision making research, where one's choice between two alternatives is influenced by the presence of an irrelevant (dominated) third alternative. We examine whether this cognitive bias, so far only tested with three alternatives and simple presentation formats such as numerical tables, text ...

Animation attracts: The attraction effect in an on-line shopping environment [PDF]
Psychology and Marketing, 2006 Two studies examine the attraction effect—an inconsistent choice behavior typically observed when consumers are presented with two products (target and competitor), both good for different reasons, and a worse “decoy”—in the context of online consumer decisions with different product displays (animated or static).
