Situating the Problematics of Judgment-Based Deselection: A Heuristics and Biases Approach

Abstract

This paper presents an analysis of decision-making in the context of judgment-based (subjective) deselection using decision theory concepts developed by Daniel Kahneman in collaboration with others. Judgment-based deselection is considered from multiple perspectives using this approach. Situating the deselection context within loss aversion, status quo bias, and the endowment effect (products of prospect theory and behavioral economics) may explain the psychological reluctance accompanying deselection. The role of feedback as a condition for developing intuitive expertise demonstrates the limited potential for developing expertise in subjective deselection. Heuristics and biases employed in decision-making and decision fatigue may account for inconsistencies in deselection decisions.
