Such decision heuristics can only be ecologically rational - yielding accurate inferences in particular problem domains - if they exploit the way that information is structured in the environment. The author presents a variety of fast and frugal heuristics that are ecologically rational and shows how they can be organized in the mind's adaptive toolbox of decision-making strategies. - Reproduced  aPsychology  aDecision making  aAmerican Behavioral Scientist  a44556  c44556d44556  00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 43, Issue no: 6pAR44967r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
