The mechanisms by which default nudges influence complex decision-making under cognitive load remain poorly understood. Although defaults can shape choice behaviour, behavioural measures alone cannot...

8/ The takeaway: defaults can act as conditional scaffolds under cognitive strain. They can support judgment in some contexts, but they can also introduce risk when poorly designed.

7/ But when the default was misaligned, it backfired and reduced accuracy.

6/ Default nudges helped under load only when they were aligned with the most probable response: they sped up decisions and improved accuracy.

5/ What did we find? Cognitive load did not reduce accuracy, but it did slow responses.

4/ Then, in the main experiment, we embedded this load manipulation into the Phillipsā€™ audit task to examine professional skepticism in decision-making.

3/ First, an online pilot study validated our cognitive load manipulation using a dot memory task and identified low vs. high load conditions for the main experiment.

2/ We tested whether default nudgesā€”pre-selected response optionsā€”can help people make better decisions when cognitive resources are strained.

1/ Cognitive overload can weaken professional skepticism in high-stakes settings like auditing, where careful judgment is critical.

In our study, we measured pupil size ā€” a marker of arousal ā€” while people listened to each type of noise. We found no differences across noises, suggesting they donā€™t reliably alter arousal in new listeners, despite popular claims.

White, pink, and brown noise are often promoted as ways to boost sleep, memory, or focus. These noises differ in their sound qualities, but itā€™s unclear if they actually affect us differently.

A new study provides evidence that misophonia is linked to difficulties in adapting to emotional demands and switching thoughts. The findings point to cognitive and emotional rigidity that may...

but not affective flexibility. We conclude that misophonia involves both executive inflexibility in emotional contexts and psychological rigidity through cognitive inflexibility and rumination.
