Framing Effects: How Presentation Changes Meaning

Corrected by Emir Baycan · on When Notes Fly · 28 July 2026 · View published page ↗

Framing effects show how the same information presented differently creates different reactions.

Factually incorrectMissing context

What was corrected

What the page claimed

The article said the Asian-disease experiment was in Kahneman's Nobel citation, gave an exact Kahneman quotation, attributed the random-wheel anchor study to Epley and Gilovich, presented universal gain/loss health-frame effects, said defaults alone explain organ-donation rates, and said framing research caused FDA and EMA absolute-risk requirements.

What was corrected

Corrected the Nobel framing and the anchoring attribution, reframed the quote as a paraphrase, qualified the health-framing and organ-donation claims, and softened the regulatory-causation claim.

Why this is better

The studies are genuine but were mis-attributed or overstated. Corrections fix attributions (notably the 1974 Tversky-Kahneman wheel study) and scope the claims rather than adding new sources.
