"Scientists Uncover Simple Tip to Avoid Common Decision-Making Mistakes"
Excess information can hinder decision-making, according to a study by researchers at Stevens Institute of Technology. The study found that when faced with complex decisions, individuals' ability to reason effectively diminishes when presented with additional, non-essential information. This suggests that simplified, focused information improves decision-making. The findings have implications for public health, indicating that educational messages should be distilled to their essential parts. The study also suggests that AI chatbots could personalize advice by highlighting specific information relevant to individuals, enhancing decision-making efficiency.
