Abstract
Two groups of Ss were run in 2 versions of a computer controlled dynamic decision task. Ss were not informed that the observed system was dynamic. In both versions they acted as pacers and could either induce a positive or a negative trend or keep the system static. In the first one some kind of optimism and risk preference induced a positive trend while risk aversion resulted in a negative exploding system. The second task was the opposite of the first. Results indicate that only a few Ss recognized that the observed system was dynamic. Under the first condition Ss succeeded in keeping the system static, whereas under the second one Ss' performance was strikingly non-optimal.
