Even though many of the questions within the chapter were conceptually the same, the contextual framing influenced our decision-making process. Framing can have influential effects on our considerations when we propose solutions. Thus, when we fail to understand that problems can be framed in a variety of ways, we are using imperfect perceptions of probability and it can influence our choices. When one’s focus is only on a particular question, the solution will be based on that framed mindset. While, on the contrary, if a problem can be framed in multiple ways, a truly objective solution can be found.
