Gender and negotiator competitiveness: a meta-analysis

Article Abstract:

Gender differences were noted between men and women with regards to their negotiation behavior. A meta-analytic review involving 62 research reports revealed that women are slightly more cooperative than men in negotiations. However, gender differences in negotiation behavior tends to be reduced by constraints on negotiators. Men tends to be less competitive than women in terms of competing against a rival who utilizes a 'tit-for-tat' bargaining strategy.

Rumor and prediction: making sense (but losing dollars) in the stock market

Article Abstract:

The casuality of heuristic is strongly believed to be the basis of stock market trading dependent on rumors. Anti-regressive predictions still exist despite the awareness that rumors cannot be trusted, believed or depended on. This is because casual information integrated into rumors carries too much weight. Expectations of message subjects are still anti-regressive even at times when these parties failed to get any messages.

Judgment under chaos

Article Abstract:

Study results indicate that judgements made under chaos are more accurate than those made under randomicity. That finding replicates earlier findings. The similarities that characterize judgements made under chaos and under randomicity are surprising. Particularly surprising is the fact that subjects can approximate both chaotic and random sequences' (anti-) persistence with high accuracy.
