Predicting Human Choices from Text Descriptions
First large-scale study of decision-making with textually described risks
This groundbreaking research explores how humans make decisions when risks are conveyed through text descriptions rather than numerical probabilities.
- First large-scale dataset of binary choices between textually described lotteries
- Evaluates multiple computational approaches to predict human choices
- Bridges the gap between theoretical decision science and real-world decision contexts
- Provides insights for developing AI systems that can better understand human risk perception
Medical Relevance: Understanding how patients interpret textual descriptions of treatment risks and benefits could significantly improve medical communication, informed consent processes, and shared decision-making in healthcare settings.
