Modeling and debiasing resource saving judgments

Svenson, Ola; Gonzalez, Nichel; Eriksson, Gabriella - In: Judgment and Decision Making 9 (2014) 5, pp. 465-478

Svenson (2011) showed that choices of one of two alternative productivity increases to save production resources (e.g., man-months) were biased. Judgments of resource savings following a speed increase from a low production speed line were underestimated and following an increase of a high...

The time-saving bias: Judgements, cognition and perception

Eriksson, Gabriella; Svenson, Ola; Eriksson, Lars - In: Judgment and Decision Making 8 (2013) 4, pp. 492-497

hypothetical scenarios (Svenson, 2008). The present study asked whether the classic time-saving bias persists as a perceptual bias … investigated the time-saving bias in a driving simulator. Each participant was asked to first drive a distance at a given speed and … compared to the first trip. We found that that the time-saving bias applies to active driving and that it affects the choice of …

Exploring the time-saving bias: How drivers misestimate time saved when increasing speed

Peer, Eyal - In: Judgment and Decision Making 5 (2010) 7, pp. 477-488

According to the time-saving bias, drivers underestimate the time saved when increasing from a low speed and … research conducted two studies with multiple questions to show that the time-saving bias occurs in other tasks. Study 1 found … that drivers committed the time-saving bias when asked to estimate (a) the time saved when increasing speed or (b) the …
