Choice under conflict: The dynamics of deferred decision
Tversky and Shafir argue that choice often creates conflict, which classical decision theory ignores, and test the idea that people delay choosing or seek new options when conflict is high. Several studies on deferral, search and default options support this view. Psychological Science 3(6), 358-361, 1992. No figures are used.
