== <span style="color: #FFFFFF;">Remembering</span> == * '''Behavioral Economics''' β The study of psychological, social, cognitive, and emotional factors on economic decisions. * '''Nudge''' β A subtle change in choice architecture that steers people toward a better decision without restricting options. * '''Heuristic''' β A mental shortcut used to make quick, often efficient, but sometimes biased decisions. * '''Anchoring''' β Relying too heavily on an initial piece of information (the "anchor") when making judgments. * '''Loss Aversion''' β The tendency to feel the pain of a loss twice as strongly as the joy of an equivalent gain. * '''Framing Effect''' β How the presentation of information (e.g., "90% lean" vs "10% fat") influences choice. * '''Endowment Effect''' β Valuing something more highly simply because you own it. * '''Sunk Cost Fallacy''' β Continuing to invest in a losing project because of past investments that cannot be recovered. * '''Confirmation Bias''' β Seeking out information that confirms our existing beliefs while ignoring contradictory evidence. * '''Hyperbolic Discounting''' β The tendency to prefer smaller, immediate rewards over larger, delayed ones. * '''Bounded Rationality''' β The idea that our ability to make rational decisions is limited by our cognitive capacity and time. * '''Choice Architecture''' β The design of different ways in which choices can be presented to consumers. * '''Status Quo Bias''' β The preference for the current state of affairs and resistance to change. * '''Mental Accounting''' β Treating money differently based on its source or intended use (e.g., "gift" money vs. "salary"). </div> <div style="background-color: #006400; color: #FFFFFF; padding: 20px; border-radius: 8px; margin-bottom: 15px;">
