Mediating Influences on the Effect of Information Frame in Judgment and Decision Making

关键信息来源的呈现方式或“框架”似乎对判断和决定产生了强大而可概括的影响。虽然研究者实验室的初步工作支持这种效应的稳健性，但他们最近的研究表明，多种中介因素可能会影响信息框架的效果。这个研究项目的中心主题是使用信息框架操作来理解影响判断和决策的各种因素的相互作用。拟议的研究将试图超越框架效应的论证，提供中介因素的经验证据，开发包含这些因素的模型，并为理解个人和管理决策提供启示。

The manner in which a key source of information is presented or "framed" appears to have an effect on judgments and decisions that is both powerful and generalizable. While initial work in the investigator's laboratory supported the robustness of this effect, their recent research suggests that a variety of mediating factors may influence the effect of information frame. A central theme of this program of research is to use information framing manipulations to understand the interactive effects of a variety of factors that influence judgments and decisions. The proposed studies will attempt to move beyond demonstrations of framing effects to provide empirical evidence of mediating factors, develop models that incorporate these factors, and provide implications for understanding individual and managerial decision making.
