Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
You have a 90% chance of dying if you have a surgery and only 10% chance of surviving. You decide not to have the surgery. This is an example of what?
A
Belief Bias
B
Framing
C
Belief preseverance
D
Representative Heuristic
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Major bleeding, injury to the heart muscle and severe infection (sepsis) accounted for 45% of the deaths. Only 0.7% of the deaths took place in the operating room, while 29% occurred after patients left the hospital.

Detailed explanation-2: -The principle of description invariance is another such coherence-based principle. Roughly speaking, it states that rational agents’ decisions should be unaffected by how choice options are described.

Detailed explanation-3: -This study found that general surgical procedures performed urgently had a 12.3% rate of morbidity and a 2.3% rate of mortality, which are rates distinctly different from both emergency (morbidity, 13.8%; mortality, 3.7%) and elective (morbidity, 6.7%; mortality, 0.4%) surgery.

Detailed explanation-4: -The framing effect is a type of cognitive bias or error in thinking. “Framing” refers to whether an option is presented as a loss (negative) or a gain (positive). People are generally biased toward picking an option they view as a gain over one they view as a loss, even if both options lead to the same result.
