3. How does limited cognitive attention and mental accounting affect financial decision-making and the processing of accounting information?

This theme investigates the role of cognitive constraints such as limited attention and mental accounting heuristics on the accuracy of information processing, forecasting, and financial decision-making by individuals including analysts, managers, and households. These behavioral insights are crucial for understanding market inefficiencies, forecast errors, and personal financial behaviors.
