Merge cognitive biases

It seems that the list of cognitive biases overlaps substantially (but not completely) with the better-linked and more extensive list in List of cognitive biases#Decision-making and behavioral biases. Any thoughts? 18.85.23.189 (talk) 16:54, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

I agree that merging would make sense. If a couple of these biases are detailed in the text of this article, that can coexist with their being listed on the other page. But having them as just a list here does seem wrong. CRETOG8(t/c) 17:37, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
isn't it a bit misleading to reduce decision making to purely economical aspekts? homo economicus is not the only valid model for human behavior... i find a list of common decision-related fallacies very informative, especially without any potential interpretational baggage.
Agree. No reason Buyer Decision process can not have its own sub-heading here. As long as interpretational baggage is left outside this page.Wiknym (talk) 22:06, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

Agree with merge: no point in there being two duplicate lists. I don't think either list presumes either for or against a strictly rational/economic POV, so I don't understand the above anonymous complaint. MartinPoulter (talk) 16:56, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
Why not create a separate section for what doesn't overlap and include a comment? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.138.135.42 (talk) 07:51, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

Disagree: On principle these two articles are fundamentally different, this section should have a {{main}} template to the main article and cover where these two pages overlap and differ however this section should not be removed in favour of the one on the List page.

Disagree with merge, agree with Captain Noodle's reasoning above. Sergecross73 msg me 19:09, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

Agree This article can elaborate on the application of cognitive biases to influence buyer decisions, but instead of having an partial list, it should just link to the actual list.130.234.5.137 (talk) 09:25, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Purchase decision

I redirected "purchase decision" here. Is "purchase decision" another name for this concept? I think it is. Blue Rasberry (talk) 13:40, 11 October 2012 (UTC)
