From Shakespeare to Simon: Speculations-and Some Evidence- About Man's Ability to Process Information: (310462005-001)
Abstract
Recent experimental evidence is marshalled in support of the position that man's limited memory, attention, and reasoning capabilities lead him to apply simple strain-reducing cognitive strategies for processing information when making judgments and decisions. These strategies portray decision processes in a manner quite different from traditional normative and descriptive models. In some situations, these strategies may produce good decisions; in others, they may lead to serious mistakes. Relevance of these findings for important "real-world" (i.e., non-laboratory) decisions is discussed.

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.
