Managing Costly Generalisation Errors in the Food Domain

2022-07-02

Abstract excerpt

<p>Selectivity towards certain kinds of information, such as danger and threat, has been observed in different areas of human cognition such as learning and attention. Error Management Theory (EMT) argues that this kind of selectivity, also referred to as bias, reflects the asymmetry in costs of making mistakes with this kind of information relative to other kinds of information (Haselton & Nettle, 2006). Base...
