english: The research that my laboratory has been doing, that economists and psychologists around the country have been doing, has revealed something really quite startling to us, something we call the "impact bias," which is the tendency for the simulator to work badly, for the simulator to make you believe that different outcomes are more different than, in fact, they really are.
non_english: dat economen en psychologen in heel het land hebben gedaan, heeft iets ontdekt dat echt verrassend voor ons is. Iets wat we impactvooroordeel noemen, dat is de neiging van de voorspeller om slecht te functioneren. Want de simulator laat je geloven dat de verschillende toekomstige situaties meer van elkaar verschillen dan ze in feite echt doen.
