ENSUNCHO HOYOS, Carlos Federico. Heuristic shortcuts in policy decisions. Entramado [online]. 2023, vol.19, n.1, pp.247-258.  Epub 09-Maio-2023. ISSN 1900-3803.  https://doi.org/10.18041/1900-3803/entramado.1.8730.

Cognitive sciences, especially psychology and social neuroscience, have offered in recent years, thanks to advances in brain research and non-invasive neuroimaging techniques, novel methods to understand the neurobiological mechanisms underlying decision making. Therefore, this paper seeks to understand the extent to which heuristic shortcuts contribute to political decision making, by contrasting the different mental shortcuts and cognitive biases assumed by voters when choosing candidates or political parties.
