Abstract Details

2005, Doctor of Philosophy, Ohio State University, Psychology.
Research on judgment and decision processes has demonstrated two general decision modes: an intuitive, efficient, cursory process (System 1), and an analytical, high effort, deliberative process (System 2). These two decision strategies have been assumed to be associated with controlled and automatic cognitive processes, respectively. It is unclear whether this is always necessarily the case – as automatic processes (e.g. priming effects) at the meta-decision level may lead an individual to become either more or less deliberative in examining information in order to form a judgment or make a decision. In four studies, the influence of priming effects upon decision behavior is investigated. Furthermore, this research provides an examination of how individual differences in decision making strategy use may similarly produce differences in information search strategies, as well as in decision outcomes. A model is tested across these studies in order to describe how the impact of priming influences and temperament may both stimulate information processing and choice behavior - a priming / temperament model of information processing in decision making.
