An insight into the relationship between various brain models, decision making and UX

Article by Sreya Majumdar
UX and decision making
  • Your brain does a lot of things when you try to make a decision, here are some of them:
    • Survival instinct — human species have evolved physically as well as mentally and always adapt to their environment to survive.
    • Wiring — the pre-existing knowledge and emotions associated with the information create deeper belief systems which dictate how the user feels, thinks and responds.
    • Biases — humans begin to learn through the loop of prediction ↔ correction and this process helps reduce uncertainties.
    • Design — designers need to tap into psychological mechanisms and predict irrationalities and decision-making patterns (without being coloured by our own biases).
    • Choice architecture — limiting choices can cause discomfort to the users.
  • When making a decision, we can:
    • Present choices in a way that would not require much cognitive effort.
    • Cater to the users’ needs and biases (conscious and subconscious).
    • Drive action.
    • Appeal to the emotion of the user.
