Title: Bayesian decision-making in financial investment

Abstract: Individuals often struggle to make optimal choices when decision-making requires deliberate reasoning or critical thinking. Instead, they rely on intuitive processes, which can lead to biased and suboptimal outcomes. This study examines investment decision-making, a domain where such biases are particularly prevalent. Drawing on the Inattention Model, we designed an experiment to explore interventions aimed at improving financial decision-making.
