Testing boundaries : a theory of adaption and framing effects in ongoing tasks

This thesis investigates how information presentation affects decisions in ongoing task scenarios. For this purpose it reapplies the principles of bounded rationality and specifically framing effects into this domain. Over a number of studies. unique properties concerning both frame effectiveness and additional measures such as confidence are observed to occur. A theory of cognitive adaptation to novel scenarios, and a redefining of the concept of framing effects are proposed as a result.
