Abstract

Numerical precision – unusually precise or sharp numbers – can trigger heuristic processing and influence judgments. Numerical precision triggers heuristic processing because it causes computational difficulty or encoding difficulty. The authors propose that the discrepancy attribution model can offer a parsimonious explanation for the effects of numerical precision on everyday judgments.

精确度效应:数值精确度如何影响日常判断
数值精度-异常精确或尖锐的数字-可以触发启发式处理并影响判断。数值精度会导致计算困难或编码困难,从而触发启发式处理。作者提出,差异归因模型可以为数值精度对日常判断的影响提供一个简洁的解释。
