In this episode of PodSights, we unravel the intriguing dynamics of decision-making through the lens of prospect theory, particularly in the context of the upcoming 2024 election and its implications for the abortion debate. Discover why the fear of losing something—like reproductive rights—can more powerfully influence voter behavior than the potential for gains. We explore how loss aversion and framing effects shape opinions on abortion ballot measures, demonstrating that the language used can significantly sway support.
