Decoy Effects Improve Diversity Hiring
A growing literature demonstrates that when making choices among multiple options, decision makers are strongly influenced by the mere presence of additional options, even when those options are largely undesirable and are never actually selected. The effects of irrelevant options on decisions, often called decoy effects, have been observed in hiring ...

Behavioural finance: the decoy effect on stock investment decisions
PurposeThis study aims to investigate the occurrence of the decoy effect in stock investment decisions based on fundamental analysis.Design/methodology/approachIn this study, the decoy effect was investigated by applying two questionnaires, one of them with the presence of a decoy alternative, to a set of 224 respondents with knowledge of business ...

Testing the decoy effect in the presence of store brands [PDF]
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to test decoy effect in the framework of sales promotion, by conducting several experiments to figure out how this decoy effect is influenced by the presence or absence of a store brand. Design/methodology/approach –

Exploring decoy effects on computerized task preferences in rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta).
The asymmetric dominance effect or decoy effect emerges when a third inferior option is introduced to a choice set. The decoy option, although typically not chosen, impacts relative preference for the original two options.

Attraction comes from many sources: Attentional and comparative processes in decoy effects [PDF]
The attraction effect emerges when adding a seemingly irrelevant option (decoy) to a binary choice shifts preference towards a target option. This suggests that choice behaviour is dynamic, i.e., choice values are developed during deliberation, rather ...

Asymmetric Protocols for Scalable High-Rate Measurement-Device-Independent Quantum Key Distribution Networks [PDF]
Measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution (MDI-QKD) can eliminate detector side channels and prevent all attacks on detectors. The future of MDI-QKD is a quantum network that provides service to many users over untrusted relay nodes.

Life-history and hormonal control of aggression in black redstarts: blocking testosterone does not decrease territorial aggression, but changes the emphasis of vocal behaviours during simulated territorial intrusions [PDF]
Introduction: Many studies in behavioural endocrinology attempt to link territorial aggression with testosterone, but the exact relationship between testosterone and territorial behaviour is still unclear and may depend on the ecology of a species.

Decoy's Operational Jamming Effect
The number of decoys deployed is very important for the operational effect in practical waractions, and the more number of decoys deployed, the better is the jamming effect. However,in the development of decoys, the cost-benefit factor is most important. So it is important tostudy the problem of decoy™s cost-effectiveness. In this paper, a mathematical

Practical aspects of measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution [PDF]
A novel protocol - measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution (MDI-QKD) - removes all attacks from the detection system, the most vulnerable part in QKD implementations. In this paper, we present an analysis for practical aspects of MDI-QKD.
