Discussion: Decision Making
Think of recent decisions you have had to make. They could be something big, for example, related to your education or career, or something simpler, like finding a place to eat. Select two decisions that you have made using different processes, and describe those decisions using terms from this week's readings. For example, did you use heuristics for one decision and deductive reasoning for another? Address the strengths and weaknesses of your decision-making process and the outcomes of your decisions in terms of what theories of cognitive psychology tell us about how humans make decisions. If you were to apply foundational theories of decision making to your process, how would it help or hinder your ability to make decisions?
