Psychology of Decision-Making
Cognitive Biases and Decision-Making
Emotional Influences on Decision-Making
Emotions have a significant impact on decision-
making. This part examines the emotional side of
decision-making, examining how emotions such as
fear, joy, or tension can strongly influence choices,
sometimes leading to outcomes that defy rational
understanding.
 Risk Perception and Decision-Making:
Risk Perception and Decision-Making:
Decision-Making Under
Uncertainty
Neuroscience and Decision-Making
 Because life is inherently
uncertain, making judgments
requires a distinct set of
cognitive processes. This section
looks into heuristics and
adaptive techniques to uncover
how people deal with
uncertainty and make decisions
when they don't have all of the
facts.
Neuroscience advances provide an insight into the
neurological processes that underpin decision-making. This
section dives into the brain regions and processes involved in
decision-making, providing insights into the biological
underpinnings of human decision-making abilities.
 The psychology of decision-making
is a multifaceted study of the inner
workings of the human mind. The
intricate ballet of elements
impacting our choices, from
cognitive biases to emotional
impacts, is both fascinating and
complex.
This technology is much more than a disruptor; it is a good
change driver, fostering trust, security, and efficiency in our
increasingly interconnected world.
Conclusion:
Recognizing the presence of cognitive biases is necessary
for unraveling the intricacies of decision-making. From
confirmation bias to anchoring, this section examines how
these mental shortcuts influence people's decisions and
the potential repercussions.

Editor's Notes

  1. Be specific and direct in the title. Use the subtitle to give the specific context of the speech. -The goal should be to capture the audience’s attention which can be done with a quote, a startling statistic, or fact. It is not necessary to include this attention getter on the slide.
  2. Use the background points to post details that are not common knowledge, or that the audience will need to understand the context of the speech. -Do not read these main points from the PowerPoint, instead elaborate on these points during the speech.
  3. Dedicate this entire slide to the thesis statement. It is the reason the speech is being given. Use this time to reveal the three main points of the speech (slides 4,5,6) as an overview for the direction of the speech: -[type main point #1 here] -[type main point #2 here] -[type main point #3 here] Be sure to transition to the first main point and the next slide.
  4. The title of main point #1 should be clear and concise. Each piece of evidence should be summarized for clarity and cited correctly. Do not simply read the pieces of evidence, but elaborate where needed. [type notes for elaboration here] Be sure to transition to main point #2 and the next slide.
  5. The title of main point #2 should be clear and concise. Each piece of evidence should be summarized for clarity and cited correctly. Do not simply read the pieces of evidence, but elaborate where needed. [type notes for elaboration here] Be sure to transition to main point #3 and the next slide.
