In this chapter, the way people consider possibilities in decision making are unpacked and explored. It begins by outlining the concept of rational choice – what a decision maker ought to choose. Specifically, it discusses how, for a given decision, a rational choice can (or cannot) be determined.

Decision-Making with Uncertainty [PDF]
Abstract In emergency situations like the coronavirus pandemic, decisions must be made quickly, with only partial information. But good decisions are still possible using risk–benefit analysis. By Peter J.

Affect and prosocial behavior : The role of decision mode and individual processing style [PDF]
We study the effects of experimental manipulation of decision mode (rational "brain" vs. affective "heart") and individual difference in processing styles (intuition vs. deliberation) on prosocial behavior. In a survey experiment with a diverse sample of

Inertia and Decision Making [PDF]
Decision inertia is the tendency to repeat previous choices independently of the outcome, which can give rise to perseveration in suboptimal choices. We investigate this tendency in probability-updating tasks. Study 1 shows that, whenever decision inertia conflicts with normatively optimal behavior (Bayesian updating), error rates are larger and ...

Neuroethology of decision-making [PDF]
A neuroethological approach to decision-making considers the effect of evolutionary pressures on neural circuits mediating choice. In this view, decision systems are expected to enhance fitness with respect to the local environment, and particularly efficient solutions to specific problems should be conserved, expanded, and repurposed to solve other ...

Imagery, Affect, and Decision Making [PDF]
46 pagesTraditionally, the principal focus of research on judgment and decision making has been largely cognitive and rationalistic. More recently, however, decision-making researchers have acknowledged the role of non-cognitive factors and have ...

Neural components underlying subjective preferential decision making [PDF]
The objectives of the current study were twofold: (i) to investigate the neural precursors of the formation of a subjective preference of facial stimuli, and (ii) to characterize the spatiotemporal brain activity patterns distinguishing between preferred

Decision making, some individual decision-making styles and software for decision making
ObjectivesThis article presents the eternal relevance of the decision-making process and its inseparable connection with the personality of the decision-maker. Broadly speaking, the subject of consideration is the decision-making process. The main goal of the authors is to review the decision-making process, some styles of decision making and offer ...
