This chapter outlines some of the main applications to psychophysical and judgmental modeling of the research called the representational theory of measurement. Broadly, two general classes of models have been proposed in studying psychophysical and other similar judgmental processes: information processing models and phenomonological models. The former, currently perhaps the most popular type ...
Empirical comparisons of reasonable approaches provide evidence on the best forecasting procedures to use under given conditions. Base on this evidence, I summarize the progress made over the past quarter century with respect to methods for reducing forecasting error. Seven well-established methods have been shown to improve accuracy: combining forecasts and Delphi help for all types of data; c...
Much research has highlighted incoherent implications of judgmental heuristics, yet other findings have demonstrated high correspondence between predictions and outcomes. At the same time, judgment has been well modeled in the form of as if linear models. Accepting the probabilistic nature of the environment, the authors use statistical tools to model how the performance of heuristic rules vari...
Article history: Received 17 January 2011 Received in revised form 3 June 2011 Accepted 6 June 2011 Available online 8 July 2011 We investigate the relative impact of internal Delphi process factors – including panelists' degree of confidence, expertise, majority/minority positioning – and an external factor, richness of feedback – on opinion change and subsequent accuracy of judgmental forecas...
INTRODUCTION Mindful clinicians are resilient and more likely to provide patient-centered care. We aimed to enhance clinicians' well-being by offering a Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) course that teaches mindfulness and stress management and then determine whether this impacted their subsequent medical encounters. METHODS In a longitudinal cohort study with 27 clinicians, MBSR was ...
There is a current debate concerning whether people's physiological or behavioral potential alters their perception of slanted surfaces. One way to directly test this is to physiologically change people's potential by lowering their blood sugar and comparing their estimates of slant to those with normal blood sugar. In the first investigation of this (Schnall, Zadra, & Proffitt, 2010), it was s...
In accordance with the usual strategy of parsimony in science, the effects of extreme contexts upon absolute judgment were interpreted initially as illustrating a single process of relativity of judgment or adaptation level. The most economical interpretation of the data to be presented here necessitates the postulation of two such processes, both producing contrast effects in the same directio...
The words 'defaulter', 'suspect' and 'control' have been part of the language of tuberculosis (TB) services for many decades, and they continue to be used in international guidelines and in published literature. From a patient perspective, it is our opinion that these terms are at best inappropriate, coercive and disempowering, and at worst they could be perceived as judgmental and criminalisi...
Members of different cultures vary in basic social psychological processes, such as value orientation, attitudes, attitude-behavior relations, person perception and attribution of observed behavior. Previous researchers have traced back these differences to the respective culture members’ self-construal: Westerners define their self primarily in independent terms, whereas Asians are more likely...
The actions of individual users of an experimental demand forecasting support system were traced and analyzed. Users adopted a wide variety of strategies when choosing a statistical forecasting method and deciding whether to apply a judgmental adjustment to its forecast. This was the case despite the users reporting similar levels of familiarity with statistical methods. However, the analysis a...
