Examining the effect of information sequence on Patriot air defense officers' judgments
Article Abstract:
A study was conducted with Patriot air defense officers to determine the effects of information sequence on the judgment and actions of these pilots. According to the Hogarth-Einhorn model, sequence of information has a significant effect on judgment. Results of the experiment were consistent with this theory. This indicates that the performance of pilots may be enhanced given the optimum sequencing of data.

Causality does influence conjunctive probability judgments if context and design allow it
Article Abstract:
The impact of perceived causality on conjunctive probability judgments is studied. Results show that causality affects conjunctive probability judgments and conjunction fallacies when the existence or nonexistence of causality is manipulated as a within-subject factor. The findings also contradict the results of Thuring and Jungermann (1990) who manipulated causality as a between-subjects factor.

Perspective-taking judgments of medication acceptance: inferences from relative importance about the impact and combination of information
Article Abstract:
The inference of health treatment judgments on the basis of reported relative importance of information is investigated. Three cues are considered, namely, side effects, severity of condition and trust. Subjects are found to differ in their treatment of the importance of the three cues. Subjects also adjust their judgments so that the cue perceived to be most important has the largest net effect.
