Anticipated Regret: How Fearing 'What If' Shapes Our Decisions
from Intellectually Curious · host Mike Breault
We explore regret indecision theory—the idea that the fear of missing out on the best outcome drives choices before we act. From Loomes and Sugden to minimax regret, we unpack how anticipatory regret influences risk, inaction, and everyday decisions, with real-world examples from auctions, lotteries, and investing. Tune in to rethink how you approach uncertainty and learn to navigate choice with less fear.Note: This podcast was AI-generated, and sometimes AI can make mistakes.
