Studying the use of base rates: Normal science or shifting paradigm?
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 February 2010
Abstract
The underutilization of base rates is a consistent finding. The strong claim that base rates are ignored has been rejected and this needs no further emphasis. Following the path of “normal science,” research examines the conditions predicting changes in the degree of underutilization. A scientific revolution that might dethrone the heuristics and biases paradigm is not in sight.
