The framing effect has consistently proven to be one of the strongest biases in decision making.[10] In general, susceptibility to framing effects increases with age. Age difference factors are particularly important when considering health care[11][12][13] and financial decisions.[14] However, the framing effect seems to disappear when encountering it in a second language.[15] One explanation of this disappearance is that a second language provides greater cognitive and emotional distance than one's native tongue.[16] A foreign language is also processed less automatically than a native tongue. This leads to more deliberation, which can affect decision making, resulting in decisions that are more systematic.[17]
