"When Cognitive Reflection Leads to Less Overall but More Systematic Judgment Bias":
🤨 Participants who performed better on trick math and logic questions (a.k.a., reflection tests) were MORE (not less) likely to commit a statistical error: a "tendency to underestimate base rates".
🤔 However, the performing well on the trick questions also predicted a LOWER absolute (value of) error.

@jbaert Ik hoop dat ze dat niet doen: 26% True Positive, 9% False Positive ... Als 10% van de klas ChatGPT gebruikt, dan gaat 75% van de ‘dit is een AI’ voorspellingen een valse beschuldiging zijn. #BaseRateFallacy

A good thread explaining Base Rate Fallacy & #Covid #Perceptions #Statistics #Logic #Analysis #BaseRateFallacy #Fallacies https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1615018133814657033.html

If you (correctly) knew to debunk the message behind “most people dying of COVID were vaccinated” but not that behind “most people with Long COVID had a mild initial case,” maybe ask yourself why. #BaseRateFallacy

Another #framingEffect?

In "The Allure of #Simplicity", Jack Justus, Samantha Wakil and I run three #experiments on people's evaluations of explanations.

Merely labeling explanations 'simpler' or 'simplest' made people more vulnerable to the #baseRateFallacy and the #conjunctionFallacy!

Jack and I present our data and conclusions at #PSA2022 on Saturday.
