Bummer! The reliability of individual economic rationality measurements is moderate to poor🙁Here's a summary 🧵of our recent paper @PNASNews /w @lucalupken, Nils Lüschow, and @kalenscher. #neuroeconomics @INSEAD @HHU_de cc @veredkurtz @vectornomist
pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… Background: Research in psych, behav. & neuroecon searches individual differences & correlates of rationality. Indices of revealed preference consistency (GARP) are used as ad hoc measurement for the supposedly latent concept of rationality, often interpreted as psych. construct. Image

This was a ride! My first registered report (stage 2) /w @kalenscher was just published at Royal Society Open Science 🎉🎉 "Influence of memory processes on choice-consistency". Here's a quick tweeprint...

royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

@RSocPublishing @HHU_de @RegReports We aimed to test the influence of memory retrieval of exemplars on choice-consistency in a novel visual choice paradigm. Participants had to select one out of a set of five cubes that has the subjectively most similar orientation along 2 dimensions to the exemplar.
