Cognitive reflection and decision making

Article Abstract:

A three-step "Cognitive Reflection Test" (CRT) is advanced as an easy touchstone of cognitive ability. The association of CRT with two decision-making features, namely time preference and risk preference, is examined. A comparative study of CRT with the different measures of cognitive faculty, such as Wonderlic Personnel Test (WPT), the Need for Cognition scale (NFC), etc. is also presented.
