ABSTRACT This study advances several propositions about the effects of time pressure on individuals' belief revisions within a pressure-arousal-effort-performance framework. There is a significant body of research that documents the importance of both time pressure and order effects in an accounting environment. However, prior research has not investigated how the order of information affects individuals' belief revision processes under varying levels of time pressure, even though the inclusion of a time pressure variable has been noted as relevant in belief revision research, both in general (Hogarth and Einhorn 1992) and in accounting (Kahle, Pinsker, and Pennington 2005; Trotman and Wright 2000). In this review, we extend prior belief revision research in accounting by describing how time pressure interacts with personal and task variables and the subprocesses described in the belief-adjustment model (Hogarth and Einhorn 1992). Propositions are advanced on the effects of time pressure on individuals' belief revisions. A better understanding of such interactive effects helps to explain the mixed results identified in prior studies.

A randomized experiment was carried out in order to test the hypotheses of the interactive effects of Type A-B behavior and group process outcomes with 30 students. Small groups were rated on Bales' activity level, feelings in the group, and task orientation at the beginning and end of sessions. Although groups were initially similar, activity level and positive feelings were higher in the Type B group than in Type A group. The implications for behavioral intervention and long-term outcomes were discussed.

Aberrant decision-making characterizes various pediatric psychopathologies; however, deliberative choice strategies have not been investigated. A transdiagnostic sample of 95 youths completed a child-friendly sequential sampling paradigm. Participants searched for the best offer by sampling a finite list of offers. Participants’ willingness to explore was measured as the number of offers sampled, and ideal task performance was modeled using a Markov decision-process model. As in previous findings in adults, youths explored more offers when lists were long compared with short, yet participants generally sampled fewer offers relative to model-estimated ideal performance. Searching deeper into the list was associated with choosing better price options. Analyses examining the main and interactive effects of transdiagnostic anxiety and irritability symptoms indicated a negative correlation between anxiety and task performance ( p = .01, η p2 = .08). Findings suggest the need for more research on exploratory decision impairments in youths with anxiety symptoms.
