Choosing what we like vs liking what we choose: How choice-induced preference change might actually be instrumental to decision-making
Fig 1
Comparison of predicted relationships between meta-cognitive judgments and CIPC.
Here, we summarize the main predictions of how CIPC relate to meta-cognitive judgments under post-choice CDRT (left panel), and under our hypothesis (right panel). Blue bars depict putative partial correlations between CIPC on the one hand, and absolute pre-choice value difference (between options), pre-choice value certainty (averaged across both options), and choice confidence, on the other hand. One can see that, except for the effect of absolute value difference, our hypothesis make qualitatively distinct predictions from post-choice CDRT.
