Many papers have reported behavioral biases in belief formation that come on top of standard game-theoretic reasoning. We show that the processes involved depend on the way participants reason about their beliefs. When they think about what everybody else or another "unspeci fied" individual is...

Intuition can lead to more effective decision-making than analysis under certain conditions. This assumption can be … regarded as common sense. However, dominant research streams on intuition effectiveness in decision-making conceptualize … article suggests the structuredness of the decision problem as the main criterion for intuition effectiveness, and proposes …
