Publisher's Synopsis
""A Study of Judgment: A Factoring Analysis of the Anchoring Effects"" by Patrick J. Frawley is a book that delves into the psychological phenomenon of anchoring effects in decision-making. Anchoring refers to the tendency of people to rely heavily on the first piece of information they receive when making a decision, even if it is irrelevant or arbitrary. Frawley uses a factoring analysis to examine the different factors that influence anchoring effects, including the context in which the information is presented, the individual's cognitive processes, and the social and cultural factors that shape their decision-making. The book presents a comprehensive overview of the research on anchoring effects and provides practical insights for individuals and organizations looking to make better decisions. It is a valuable resource for psychologists, behavioral economists, and anyone interested in understanding the complex factors that shape human judgment.Studies In Psychology And Psychiatry.
