T_3_06 — Psychology of Decision Making

The psychology of decision making — transformed by Kahneman & Tversky's heuristics and biases program (1970s) and formalized in prospect theory (1979, Nobel Prize in Economics 2002) — demonstrates that human judgment and

T_3_01 — Cognitive Biases & Heuristics

Cognitive biases are systematic deviations from rational judgment that arise from the brain's use of mental shortcuts (heuristics) to process complex information under uncertainty.

The observer effect in quantum mechanics refers to the fundamental principle that measuring a quantum system inevitably disturbs it, and more profoundly, that the act of measurement appears to force a quantum system from

A genetic bottleneck occurs when a population's size is drastically reduced, causing a random loss of genetic variation (alleles) that cannot be recovered through subsequent population growth. Founder effects are a speci
