Unit 5 – Cognitive Psychology
Topic 5.7
How has the concept of heuristics evolved in our understanding of decision-making?
The importance of heuristics has diminished over time due to advances in technology.
Our understanding hasn't changed - heuristics remain perceived as simple mental shortcuts with no significant impact on decision making.
Heuristics have always been considered detrimental to decision-making.
Once seen as mere shortcuts, heuristics are now understood to play a crucial role in efficient decision-making process under uncertainty and limited time.
