Abstract: Using the Behavioral Economy approach, the article explores the behavioral fundamentals for worsening decision-making in the presence of significant information. The answers are found in ignoring the essential information, the influence of previous behavior and information; activation of wrong heuristics and the adverse effects on social influences and preferences. Arguments from foreign and three own studies are presented.
