Decision Fatigue Framework: Unveiling the Causes and Consequences of Decision Fatigue through Systematic Review
SessionCEDM12: Decision Making
DescriptionAn American adult makes approximately 35,000 decisions daily. Though making such a high number of decisions is daunting, decision-making can get even more challenging if such decisions involve high-risk domains (e.g., firefighters and emergency personnel). Past studies revealed that the effectiveness of the decision-making process declines with the rise in the complexity of decisions and the frequency of consecutive decision-making. These intricacies give rise to the phenomenon called decision fatigue, which refers to the deteriorating quality of decisions an individual makes after a prolonged decision-making period. Decision fatigue leads to reduced efficiency in the rate and quality of decisions. The objective of this current work is to consolidate and summarize the findings in a structured manner and develop a conceptual framework that can be generalized across different domains. This conceptual framework can aid practitioners, policymakers, and researchers in improving the effectiveness and accuracy of organizational decision-making.
