another experiment this time we told
another experiment this time we told participants about the current governor
participants about the current governor
participants about the current governor of an important state who is running for
of an important state who is running for
of an important state who is running for re-election against his opponent we
re-election against his opponent we
re-election against his opponent we again had two groups of participants and
again had two groups of participants and
again had two groups of participants and we described the current governors track
we described the current governors track
we described the current governors track record to them in one of two ways we
record to them in one of two ways we
record to them in one of two ways we said that when the current governor took
said that when the current governor took
said that when the current governor took office statewide budget cuts were
office statewide budget cuts were
office statewide budget cuts were expected to affect about 10,000 jobs and
expected to affect about 10,000 jobs and
expected to affect about 10,000 jobs and then half the participants read that
then half the participants read that
then half the participants read that under the current governor’s leadership
under the current governor’s leadership
under the current governor’s leadership forty percent of these jobs had been
forty percent of these jobs had been
forty percent of these jobs had been saved and they like the current governor
saved and they like the current governor
saved and they like the current governor they think he’s doing a great job the
they think he’s doing a great job the
they think he’s doing a great job the rest of the participants read that under
rest of the participants read that under
rest of the participants read that under the current governor’s leadership 60% of
the current governor’s leadership 60% of
the current governor’s leadership 60% of these jobs had been lost and they don’t
these jobs had been lost and they don’t
these jobs had been lost and they don’t like the current governor they think
like the current governor they think
like the current governor they think he’s doing a terrible job but then once
he’s doing a terrible job but then once
he’s doing a terrible job but then once more we added a twist for participants
more we added a twist for participants
more we added a twist for participants in the first group we reframed the
in the first group we reframed the
in the first group we reframed the information in terms of losses and now
information in terms of losses and now
information in terms of losses and now they didn’t like the current governor
they didn’t like the current governor
they didn’t like the current governor anymore and for participants in the
anymore and for participants in the
anymore and for participants in the second group we reframed the information
second group we reframed the information
second group we reframed the information in terms of games but just like in the
in terms of games but just like in the
in terms of games but just like in the first study this didn’t seem to matter
first study this didn’t seem to matter
first study this didn’t seem to matter people in this group still didn’t like
people in this group still didn’t like
people in this group still didn’t like the current governor so notice what this
the current governor so notice what this
the current governor so notice what this means
means
means once the loss frame gets in there it
once the loss frame gets in there it
once the loss frame gets in there it sticks people can’t go back to thinking
sticks people can’t go back to thinking
sticks people can’t go back to thinking about jobs saved once they’ve thought
about jobs saved once they’ve thought
about jobs saved once they’ve thought about jobs lost so in both of these
about jobs lost so in both of these
about jobs lost so in both of these scenarios actually the current governor
scenarios actually the current governor
scenarios actually the current governor gets out stood in favor of his opponent
gets out stood in favor of his opponent
gets out stood in favor of his opponent well at this point we were getting
well at this point we were getting
well at this point we were getting curious why does this happen could it be
curious why does this happen could it be
curious why does this happen could it be that it’s actually mentally harder for
that it’s actually mentally harder for
that it’s actually mentally harder for people to convert from losses to gains
people to convert from losses to gains
people to convert from losses to gains than it is for them to go from gains to
than it is for them to go from gains to
than it is for them to go from gains to losses so we conducted a third study to
losses so we conducted a third study to
losses so we conducted a third study to test how easily people could convert
test how easily people could convert
test how easily people could convert from one frame to another the
from one frame to another the
from one frame to another the time we told participants imagine
time we told participants imagine
time we told participants imagine there’s been an outbreak of an unusual
there’s been an outbreak of an unusual
there’s been an outbreak of an unusual disease and 600 lives are at stake
disease and 600 lives are at stake
disease and 600 lives are at stake and we asked participants in one group
and we asked participants in one group
and we asked participants in one group if 100 lives are saved how many will be
if 100 lives are saved how many will be
if 100 lives are saved how many will be lost and we asked participants in the
lost and we asked participants in the
lost and we asked participants in the other group if 100 lives are lost how
other group if 100 lives are lost how
other group if 100 lives are lost how many will be saved so everyone just has
many will be saved so everyone just has
many will be saved so everyone just has to calculate 600 minus 100 and come up
to calculate 600 minus 100 and come up
to calculate 600 minus 100 and come up with the answer of 500 but whereas
with the answer of 500 but whereas
with the answer of 500 but whereas people in one group have to convert from
people in one group have to convert from
people in one group have to convert from gains to losses in order to do that
gains to losses in order to do that
gains to losses in order to do that people in the second group have to
people in the second group have to
people in the second group have to convert from losses to gains we timed
convert from losses to gains we timed
convert from losses to gains we timed how long it took them to solve this
how long it took them to solve this
how long it took them to solve this simple math problem and what we found
simple math problem and what we found
simple math problem and what we found was that when people had to convert from
was that when people had to convert from
was that when people had to convert from gains to losses they could solve the
gains to losses they could solve the
gains to losses they could solve the problem quite quickly took them about
problem quite quickly took them about
problem quite quickly took them about seven seconds on average but when they
seven seconds on average but when they
seven seconds on average but when they had to convert from losses to gains
had to convert from losses to gains
had to convert from losses to gains well now it took them far longer almost
well now it took them far longer almost
well now it took them far longer almost 11 seconds so this suggests that once we
11 seconds so this suggests that once we
11 seconds so this suggests that once we think about something as a loss that way
