Effects of Construal Level on Omission Detection and Multiattribute Evaluation

Abstract

People often rely on limited readily available information, neglecting missing information. Insensitivity to missing information results in inappropriately extreme judgments. This research investigates the effects of psychological distance on omission detection, providing a critical test of differing predictions derived from construal level theory and omission neglect theory.
