解释:
Conservatism bias, a cognitive error, is a belief perseverance bias in which people maintain their prior views or forecasts by inadequately incorporating new information. This cognitive error has aspects of both statistical and information-processing errors. Gerber displayed conservatism bias by maintaining his prior views on ABC without adequately incorporating new information. There are several examples of new information that was either ignored or inadequately considered:
• the delays in initiation of Phase Two trials;
• the discouraging results from Phase One;
• the cautionary language from the CEO; and
• the chief scientist’s statement indicating that there were “major obstacles to overcome.”
Gerber disregarded all the negative news and cautionary language that was released by ABC. Gerber failed to incorporate the new information into his analysis of ABC. The impact was a loss to the foundation, which could have been reduced had Gerber incorporated the information into his analysis and adjusted the foundation’s holdings of ABC.
conservatism bias is that people tend to maintain their prior views when presented new information.
Gerber displayed conservatism bias:
1.Gerber believes that the research setbacks are temporary even if Project M has delayed its Phase Two trials durg.
2.Published results from Phase One trials have raised some concerns regarding the drug
3.and In its last two quarterly investors’ conference calls, ABC’s CEO was very cautious in discussing expectations for Project M
4.and ABC’s stock price decreased by over 20 percent during the past six months.
