Detection and Selection Decisions with Conditional Feedback
Effects of task uncertainty on decision thresholds in a multiple cue decision task were examined under two types of feedback and three base rate conditions. In most such decision experiments, participants receive feedback after every trial (full feedback) with a single (usually .5) base rate. Our experiment explored conditional (decision‐contingent) feedback, in a task representing a detection problem (passenger screening) in which the decision m…
Learning to Make Selection and Detection Decisions
The effects of type of feedback and base rate on threshold learning in a multiple‐cue decision task were examined. In most such decision experiments, participants receive feedback after every trial (full feedback), and a single base rate (usually 0.5) is used. Our experiment explored conditional feedback (feedback only after positive decisions) representing common selection and detection tasks (such as hiring), where the decision maker receives n…
Dimensions of Judgment
In this paper, we explore a pattern of individual differences in performance on judgment tasks. One hundred participants completed a battery of standard judgment tasks, including multiple cue judgment and tasks based on the “heuristics and biases” and problem‐solving literature. Participants also completed tests of fluid and crystallized intelligence, forward digit span memory, and multiple cue probability learning. Confirmatory factor analyses i…

Affirmative action, duality of error, and the consequences of mispredicting the academic performance of african american college applicants
The implications of different potential affirmative action policies depend on three factors: selection rate from the applicant pool, base rate of qualified applicants, and accuracy of performance predictions. A series of analyses was conducted under various assumptions concerning affirmative action plans, causes of racial differences in average college admissions test scores, and racial differences in accuracy of performance predictions. Evidence…

Generality of Multidimensional Representations
Since multidimensional scaling is being used for the dimensionalization of an increasingly broad variety of objects, it is important to have techniques for evaluating the resulting dimensions. The term "generality" is used to refer to the degree to which a dimensional representation for a set of objects can be used to account for behavior in a variety of tasks or situations. It is asserted that generality of a multidimensional configuration is it…
