    "title": "Cognitive Dimension Reduction: An Information-Theoretic Approach",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "We introduce a dimension reduction framework (CDR) that sheds light on how individuals simplify the multidimensional world to guide decision-making and comprehension. Our proposal posits that cognitive limitations prompt the adoption of simplified models, reducing the environment to a subset of dimensions. Within these limitations, we propose that individuals exploit both environment structure and goal relevance. Employing information theory, we formalize these principles and develop a model that explains how environmental and cognitive factors influence dimension reduction. Furthermore, we present an experimental method for the model's assessment and initial findings that support it.",
