Planning under time pressure
… as quickly as possible. It must allocate its time between planning the actions to achieve the task and actually executing them. We call this problem planning under time pressure. Most popular heuristic search algorithms are ill-suited for this setting, as they either search a lot to find short …

Noise and Time Pressure Effects on Situation Awareness and Aviation Maintenance Tasks
… requires AMTs to complete a task within a short time frame. The current study's objective is to determine if different noise levels and time pressure influence AMTs' performance and situation awareness (SA). Sixteen Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University students majoring in Aviation Maintenance …

Opportunity Recognition: A Contingency Framework of Individual Attributes, Time Pressure, and Uncertainty
… a new business. Using a contingency perspective, time pressure and uncertainty are hypothesized to moderate the effects of individual attributes – entrepreneurial self-efficacy, tolerance of uncertainty, and prior experience – on opportunity recognition. This framework answers the question whether …

Impact of time pressure, as a stressor, on dentist’s diagnostic decision making.
… lastly an experimental study on the impact of time pressure, as a stressor, on dentists’ diagnostic performance when examining dental bitewing radiographs (Chapter 4). Results: The systematic search yielded 3535 citations, of which twelve were eligible for inclusion but they did not answer the …

The Influence of an Opponent and Time Pressure in Risky Naturalistic Decision Making
… extent to which the presence of an opponent and time pressure affected risk-taking behavior in a modified blackjack game developed by Dror et al. (1999). Eighty-two college students executed a series of blackjack hands that varied with respect to risk level (none, low, medium, high, very high, …

The Effect of Shift Turnover Strategy and Time Pressure on Aviation Maintenance Technician Performance
… aviation accidents and incidents. Additionally, time constraints on certain maintenance tasks may cause AMTs to commit error when performing a task. The present study examined the effect of shift turnover strategy (face-to-face or written) and time pressure on error capture, accuracy, and …

The Influence of Time Pressure and Information Load on Rule-Based Decision-Making Performance
… was evaluated under varying levels of time pressure and information load to determine their influence on simple rule-based decision-making. Consistent errors, biases, and heuristics found in human decision-making have been attributed to attempts to reduce attentional demands and to the …

The Effects of Security Framing, Time Pressure, and Brand Familiarity on Risky Mobile Application Downloads
… examined the effects of security system framing, time pressure, and brand familiarity on mobile application download behaviors, with an emphasis on risk taking. According to the Prospect Theory, people tend to engage in irrational decision making, and make qualitatively different decisions when …

How Do Specialist Expertise, Auditor-Specialist Communication, And Time Pressure Affect Auditors’ Use Of Specialists’ Valuations?
… pairs to communicate, and the level of time pressure affect the extent to which auditors rely on specialists’ estimates. To investigate the research question, I employ a mixed experimental design in an abstract setting, where college students take on the roles of auditor and specialist …

An investigation of the effects of time pressure on consumers' perception of price, quality, and value
This dissertation examines how time pressure influences the perceptions of quality, sacrifice and value associated with the given price information of a product. To understand the effects of time pressure on information processing, a conceptual framework based on the process theories on attitude …

The Perceived Importance Model of Group Decision Making: Interdependent Information, Hidden Profiles, Assignment of Expertise, and Time Pressure
… by manipulating information distributions and time pressure. In contrast to most hidden profile research, which downplays interactions among information items, hidden profile distributions involving interrelated information items were used in the experiment. The results supported the model. It …

Supporting Coordination in Widely Distributed Cognitive Systems: The Role of Conflict Type, Time Pressure, Display Design, and Trust
… pilot. In addition to conflict type, the factors time pressure, high trust in air traffic control, and low trust in automated systems also contributed to poor detection performance. Based on a model of the cognitive processes involved in conflict detection, these findings are explained by the …

Effects of Display Dimensionality, Conflict Geometry, and Time Pressure on Conflict Detection and Resolution Performance Using a Cockpit Display of Traffic Information
Finally, as time pressure and workload increased, performance issues arose that will need to be further investigated so that future display designs can accommodate pilots who will be multitasking in high time pressure environments.

Going to extremes : an investigation into consumers' excessive behaviours
… of research on decision making suggest that time pressure can promote either risk-aversion or risk-seeking. In the present research, we explain this inconsistency by drawing on an egocentric bias framework. Specifically, we focus on two characteristics of risky decisions. First, since …
