Effect of More Options - satisficing/delaying
In a high conflict situation where there are many alternatives, the decision makers tend to postpone making a decision altogether
The effect has been observed in physicians, when offered more alternative drugs fewer opted to try a new drug
The effect has also been observed in members of the Ontario Provincial Parliament when they were requested to choose among different types of health care expenditures
