The dilution effect occurs when people fail to use diagnostic information in the presence of nondiagnostic information.
“When individuals make judgments, the dilution effect occurs when people fail to use diagnostic information in the presence of nondiagnostic information (Nisbett et al., 1981).”
From Setting the future of digital and social media marketing research: Perspectives and research propositions (2021) · cites this paper as Nisbett et al., 1981
The Results (page unavailable) show that nondiagnostic information diluted the influence of diagnostic information, and in Study 3 it eliminated that influence when the diagnostic information was relatively weak. But the Results also say diagnostic information continued to affect predictions in Studies 1 and 2. Defining the dilution effect as a failure to use diagnostic information overstates the general finding. (LLM, conf=0.88)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
