Heuristic is enabling a person to discover or learn something for them selves, this is when a person is undergoing pressure and cant really have the pressure and control it. Tversky and Kahenman proposed them selves to judge the situation that the participants were placed in. Also with this pressured placed on them they are preparing themselves for their awnser. But really they need to handle the relevant information needed to make a perfect decision. They both took the easy way preforming a heuristic. In 1973 Tversky and Kahenman had proposed that their hypothesis what that if the participant if placed under pressure a certain event will occur when often based on the number of related instances which can be really recall. In our experiment we will be placing many of the famous people in one column and any random names placed in another column. This will be tested as following the participant will be shown this list and then they will have a certain amount of time to read this list. Later when the time is or they will be handed a sheet a paper and a pencil they will write down as many names they remember. The results of the original experiment were that the most famous names where remembered and the rest of the names were forgotten, this happened because the names remembered where the one’s the participants related to so they remembered them easily but the random names where the least remembered, because the participant does not relate to them as well as they relate with the names of the famous people. Tversky and Kahenman had a conclusion about their experiment and it tell that most of the participants results were optimists meaning the were favorable to their hypothesis of how the participants would relate more to the names they were more related than the names that they were lease related to. Many heuristics have been preformed but they are not as successful as Tversky and Kahenman because they did a minute work planing the names and the participants. The participants were teen and they choose the artists or role models of the teens so they could remember of then and the other names where totally at random. In conclusion this experiment is really interesting how they play with the participants mind to have their hypothesis states as a fact and not as false.
