This paper introduces a new theoretic entity, a nominalist heuristic, defined as a focus on prominent numbers, indices … or ratios. Abstractions used in the evaluation stage of decision making typically involve nominalist heuristics that are … incompatible with expected utility theory which excludes the evaluation stage, and are also incompatible with prospect theory which …

Third, nominalist heuristics are incompatible with expected utility theory which excludes the evaluation stage, and … are also incompatible with prospect theory which assumes that, while the evaluation stage can involve systematic mistakes …

In the decision-making process, there is a stage when choosers evaluate alternatives. Evaluation is complex especially … when it involves the future exchange rate. In the complexity of predicting the future exchange rate, choosers may use …
