- T1 E1 - Thinking Scientifically about Decisions22 de septiembre de 201631 minHave you ever wondered why people make the decisions they do? Using the metaphor of manufacturing, learn what science has revealed about human decision making: informational raw materials go in, the cognitive machinery processes, control mechanisms guide the machinery, and a decision is made.#Literature &LearningPeriodo de prueba gratis de The Great Courses Signature Collection o compra
- T1 E2 - The Two-System Model of Decision Making22 de septiembre de 201630 minWhat's going on in your cognitive machinery as you manufacture your decision? Delve into the two-system model of decision making: System 1 is your automatic and intuitive processor, your earlier system from an evolutionary perspective; and System 2 is the flexible, powerful serial processor that you think of as "you."Periodo de prueba gratis de The Great Courses Signature Collection o compra
- T1 E3 - The Role of Heuristics in Decisions22 de septiembre de 201630 minHeuristics are the decision shortcuts that people use every day. While too imprecise to lead to optimal decisions, they are powerful tools that allow you to make appropriate decisions fairly easily. However, if you don't understand the limitations of heuristics, they can easily lead you astray from the truth into stereotyping and assumptions.Periodo de prueba gratis de The Great Courses Signature Collection o compra
- T1 E4 - How Habits Make Decisions Easier22 de septiembre de 201628 minHabits are our immediate automatic responses--good and bad--to situations when we don't take the time to manufacture a purposeful decision.

- T1 E5 - Self-Regulation and Choice22 de septiembre de 201630 minHave you ever felt that your mind was so overworked you just could not make one more decision?

- T1 E6 - The Value Curve and Human Decisions22 de septiembre de 201629 minProspect Theory reveals the ways in which our decision-making machinery values an item and why.

- T1 E7 - Emotional Influences on Decision Making22 de septiembre de 201630 minHave you ever driven a bit recklessly when you felt angry or frustrated? If so, you know that emotions affect our decisions.

- T1 E8 - How Goals Guide Our Decisions22 de septiembre de 201631 minCan you influence the cognitive machinery that manufactures your decisions? Absolutely. Learn why and how our goals motivate us, which goals inspire our greatest effort, and how best to motivate others to help them meet their own goals--whether it's your sales team at work or your children at home.Periodo de prueba gratis de The Great Courses Signature Collection o compra
- T1 E9 - Reason-Based Choice22 de septiembre de 201629 minEven when manufacturing the seemingly simplest of decisions, our control panel can steer us in the wrong direction. Learn why our cognitive machinery often over-weights attributes, considers information that really has no bearing on the decision at hand, and sometimes makes short-term evaluations that won't serve us well later.Periodo de prueba gratis de The Great Courses Signature Collection o compra
- T1 E10 - Mental Accounting as a Factor in Decisions22 de septiembre de 201631 minMental accounting is a powerful decision-making tool we can employ to improve our lives.

- T1 E11 - The Role of Mindsets in Decision Making22 de septiembre de 201631 minWe don't make decisions in a vacuum. Before we even have the opportunity to decide our next action, before a stimulus even comes our way, we are mentally prepared to receive it. Our mindset, that stage of mental preparation, significantly affects how we perceive and process information and the decisions that result.Periodo de prueba gratis de The Great Courses Signature Collection o compra
- T1 E12 - How Consistency Drives Decisions22 de septiembre de 201629 minLearn how the strong desire for consistency--between beliefs and actions, and between current and past actions--drives both our decision making and our judgment of others' actions. But what happens when our own actions are not consistent with our stated beliefs? Decision science reveals that we tend to make a surprising accommodation.Periodo de prueba gratis de The Great Courses Signature Collection o compra
- T1 E13 - Social Influences on Decision Making22 de septiembre de 201629 minOur relationships with others and broader societal pressures influence our decision making, whether or not we're aware of it.

- T1 E14 - Nonconscious Influences on Decision Making22 de septiembre de 201631 minCan subliminal messages cause us to make decisions almost against our will? Although a major hoax perpetrated on a panicked public caused us to believe just that for a while, science has demonstrated that we have more control than that--but there is still reason to be wary. Learn about the scientifically proven ways in which we are subtly influenced by subliminal messages and environmental cues.Periodo de prueba gratis de The Great Courses Signature Collection o compra
- T1 E15 - An Evolutionary View of Decision Making22 de septiembre de 201630 minYou might never have thought to blame a bad decision on your ancestors' development millennia ago, but there just might be reason to. Learn about the often surprising and unexpected ways in which evolutionary drives--hidden beneath the surface of our control panel--guide our decision processes even today, for better or for worse.Periodo de prueba gratis de The Great Courses Signature Collection o compra
- T1 E16 - Regulatory Focus and Human Motivation22 de septiembre de 201630 minFor centuries, decision-making motivation was seen in the context of maximizing pleasure and minimizing pain. But recent scientific research reveals a more complex framework. Regulatory Focus theory shows that we operate from four motivational states, not two, and it reveals a richer and more accurate framework for understanding our decisions.Periodo de prueba gratis de The Great Courses Signature Collection o compra
- T1 E17 - Decision Rules22 de septiembre de 201629 minHow much information do you collect before making a decision? How much is optimal?

- T1 E18 - How Context Influences Choice22 de septiembre de 201628 minUncover the many unexpected ways in which information context affects our decisions. What happens when our mind acts like a big shovel, scooping up all the data in its path and processing that information together, whether relevant or not? Scientific studies reveal how the choice context can lead to some surprising decisions.Periodo de prueba gratis de The Great Courses Signature Collection o compra
- T1 E19 - How Framing Effects Guide Decisions22 de septiembre de 201628 minEven as children, we learned that the way in which we presented a choice to our parents was often as important as the specific question we asked. Decision science reveals just how that tool--decision framing--can be used to our benefit, and how it is used to manipulate our choices as consumers.Periodo de prueba gratis de The Great Courses Signature Collection o compra
- T1 E20 - The Role of Memory in Decisions22 de septiembre de 201628 minIn addition to the new information your brain is constantly acquiring, you use memory in your decision-making process. In fact, the quality of any decision often depends on accessing the appropriate memories at the appropriate time. Learn how some surprising tools can help you recall those memories more effectively.Periodo de prueba gratis de The Great Courses Signature Collection o compra
- T1 E21 - Assortments, Variety, and Choice22 de septiembre de 201630 minAlthough consumers almost always say they want more options, research shows that when faced with too many choices, consumers are sometimes unable to make any decision at all.

- T1 E22 - How Evaluability Affects Decisions22 de septiembre de 201628 minResearch shows that when evaluating options, we tend to place more importance on attributes we understand and less importance on those we don't--without considering relevance to the decision at hand.

- T1 E24 - The Four Rs of Decision Making22 de septiembre de 201634 minScientists don't anticipate developing one unified theory to model decision making; human beings are just too complex.
