📜 The authors expanded on the idea, testing whether the perceived ease of recalling the pairs would also influence evaluations. They manipulated the ease of recall by varying the number of items participants had to recall before making evaluations of made-up brands. 3/5

👔 In each of the experiments, participants (e.g., financial advisors at a trade union) faced a decision-making problem that matched the context of their job. They could choose either a safe but small gain or a risky chance at more, but with the risk of total loss. 2/5

📊 Would you rather make risky decisions for yourself or for others? Which one would turn a possible loss into a much bigger issue than potential gains? Mayiwar (2025) tested groups of professional decision-makers, giving them hypothetical risky-choice tasks. spb.psychopen.eu/index.php/sp...
