Unpacking Planning Fallacy

Abstract: This study was conducted to determine whether planning fallacy can be affected through the action of unpacking a to-do list. The study uses two surveys on a specific population of Amazon Turk workers and randomly assigned participants to each of the two surveys. The survey produced discrete responses that can be used to statistically determine the effect of unpacking on the effect of planning fallacy. The data were collected and analyzed through data analysis tools and the statistical concept of T-Test. Although the manipulation of unpacking a to-do list was evidently present in the experimental group, the results failed to prove the initial hypothesis that unpacking a to-do list reduces the effect of planning fallacy.
