This advance in our understanding of satisficing strategies could form the basis of predicting human choices in high time pressure scenarios. Thus, the human cognitive apparatus copes with uncertainty and severe time pressure by adopting a 'drop-the-worst' cue decision making strategy that minimizes cognitive time and effort investment while preserving the consideration of the most diagnostic cue information, thus maintaining 'good-enough' accuracy. With increasingly demanding, subsecond time pressures, however, participants systematically discounted a subset of the cue information by dropping the least informative cue(s) from their decision making process. Add flour and baking powder beat on low speed until dough forms. Beat in vanilla and egg until well blended. We found that under low time pressure, participants correctly weighted and integrated all available cues to arrive at near-optimal decisions. In large bowl with electric mixer, beat sugar and butter on medium speed until light and fluffy. To characterize these decision strategies quantitatively, the present study examined how people solve a novel multicue probabilistic classification task under varying time pressure, by tracking shifts in decision strategies using variational Bayesian inference. However, the decision-making strategies we adopt under uncertainty and time pressure, for example during emergencies that demand split-second choices, are presently unknown. It is thought that humans overcome these limitations through satisficing, fast but 'good-enough' heuristic decision making that prioritizes some sources of information (cues) while ignoring others. a day trader who is used to making split-second decisions. Much of our real-life decision making is bounded by uncertain information, limitations in cognitive resources, and a lack of time to allocate to the decision process.
