{"pk":29993,"title":"Inducing preference reversals by manipulating revealed preferences","subtitle":null,"abstract":"It is currently difficult to test the validity of existing explana-tions for the emergence of context-dependent preference rever-sals. This is because these explanations are generally placed atthe level of the process of evidence accumulation, and acrossexperimental paradigms, this process is unobservable. In thispaper, we propose a new experimental paradigm for elicitingpreference reversals, wherein the process of evidence accumu-lation is significantly observable. Over a series of experiments,we successfully induce preference reversals for arbitrary stim-uli by showing participants sequences of stimuli comparisonswith pre-determined outcomes. Our findings partially supportthe view that context-sensitive assimilation of a history of ordi-nal comparisons is sufficient to explain classic context effects.","language":"eng","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[{"word":"preference reversals; decisions from experience;preference formation"}],"section":"Poster Session 3","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/6th3g9fs","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Harish","middle_name":"","last_name":"Balakrishnan","name_suffix":"","institution":"Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur","department":""},{"first_name":"Shobhit","middle_name":"","last_name":"Jagga","name_suffix":"","institution":"Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur","department":""},{"first_name":"Nisheeth","middle_name":"","last_name":"Srivastava","name_suffix":"","institution":"Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur","department":""}],"date_submitted":null,"date_accepted":null,"date_published":"2020-01-01T18:00:00Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/29993/galley/19847/download/"}]}
