Ch 6
This chapter discusses frames and anchors. The framing of min as discussed in the book, is directly influenced by the person's environment, the risks involved in the particular decision that must be made, and by events and the timing of those events. In studies, people, when asked to decide over an issue, will usually anchor their responses to a numerical value, and even more so if it is the first one given.
Ch 7
This chapter deals with what I have done for a great number of the readings, skim. It discusses how people learn to skim through a great deal of things such as text and even images. When a person becomes familiar with that object, their focus loses grip and do not pay as much attention to detail.
Discussion:
These chapters were really interesting especially the chapter discussing skimming because I tend to do that a lot. I think that is why it is so hard to pick out flaws in your work because you become so familiar with them that you do not pay as much attention to detail and may miss things. Now add the rose-colored glasses effect on that, and it will be impossible to find any mistakes in your work.
