Information Search and Decision Making: Effects of Age and Complexity on Strategy Use

author keywords: decision making; aging; strategy; information search
MeSH headings : Adult; Age Factors; Aged; Aged, 80 and over; Choice Behavior; Decision Making; Female; Humans; Information Seeking Behavior; Male; Middle Aged; Psychological Tests
TL;DR:
It seems that older adults utilize simpler sets of information primarily reflecting the most valued attributes in making their choice, and that this ability may benefit from accrued knowledge and experience.

Age Differences in the Effects of Conscious and Unconscious Thought in Decision Making
PSYCHOLOGY AND AGING, 25(2), 251–261.
author keywords: decision making; aging; dual-process thinking; affective processing
MeSH headings : Adolescent; Adult; Aged; Aged, 80 and over; Aging / psychology; Attention; Awareness; Choice Behavior; Decision Making; Female; Humans; Intuition; Male; Mental Recall; Middle Aged; Problem Solving; Thinking; Unconscious, Psychology; Young Adult
TL;DR:
Young adults were more accurate in their representations of the decision material than older adults, which accounted for much of the age-related variation in performance when the full sample was considered, and unconscious thought was more appropriate when participants relied on intuitive rather than deliberative processing to make their decision.
