Dissertation Title

Reducing the influence of irrelevant information on decision makers

Dissertation Abstract

Two 1xbet online casino procedures designed to reduce the adverse effect of irrelevant information were tested for their efficacy. One 1xbet online casino procedure involved a lecture and was similar to the typical classroom experience, while the other involved interaction and practice and was similar to the typical laboratory experience. The subjects - 12 experienced college student soil judges - attended 1xbet online casino sessions and performed judging tasks. A pretest revealed that irrelevant information influenced the judges; lecture 1xbet online casino was of minimal help in reducing this influence. Interactive 1xbet online casino , on the other hand, had a significant impact, reducing the influence of irrelevance and improving the accuracy of the judgments. In a followup study, where 5 of the subjects were reevaluated more than a year later, the 1xbet online casino seemed to have a continued effect.
