    08-07-2007 · EurekAlert!
    In a series of eight experiments, Tom Meyvis of New York University and Alan Cooke of the University of Florida find that when consumers expect to make similar choices in the future, they selectively pay attention to information that suggests that an alternative would be better. These consumers also tend to disregard information that indicates their current choice is the best possible choice.
