Matching Cognitive Heuristics with Descriptions
The question requires matching four cognitive heuristics (List-I) with their corresponding descriptions (List-II). Let's analyze each heuristic:
Availability Heuristic (A)
The Availability heuristic is a mental shortcut that relies on immediate examples that come to a person's mind when evaluating a specific topic, concept, or decision. Therefore, it relates to III. What comes to mind first.
Representativeness Heuristic (B)
The Representativeness heuristic involves judging the probability of an event by how closely it resembles a typical case or stereotype. This means we often assume that if something is typical, it is also likely. This matches IV. Assuming that what is typical is also likely the solution.
Anchoring-and-Adjustment Heuristic (C)
The Anchoring-and-Adjustment heuristic occurs when people make decisions by starting with an initial piece of information (an anchor) and then making subsequent adjustments. This often involves using initial estimates or Reference points. This matches II. Reference points that may lead us for problem solving.
Framing (D)
Framing refers to how information is presented, influencing judgments and decisions. It specifically relates to the Presentation of information concerning potential outcomes. This matches I. Presentation of information concerning potential outcomes.
Correct Matching
Based on the analysis, the correct matching is:
- A - III
- B - IV
- C - II
- D - I
This corresponds to Option 3.
