Once money becomes involved, the irrational and illogical belief of the hot-hand fallacy can begin to have more serious consequences.
If we make a bet on a sports game based on a successful run in the first ten minutes of the game, we are putting money down without considering all of the data. Just because a team or player is performing well in a short period of time does not counter their overall average statistics, but the hot-hand fallacy makes us believe it does. We are likely to make bets that reflect a logical fallacy and lose money as a result.
Similarly, in gambling, when we have a winning streak, because of the hot-hand fallacy, we believe that our success will continue.
In reality, most gambling games have to do with chance, and subsequent performance is completely independent from previous performance. We might get careless with our bets believing our good luck will continue and we can lose a lot of money in the process. Fans are not the only people susceptible to the hot-hand fallacy when it comes to sports.
Managers and coaches also often have to make decisions based on a small sample of observation, such as which players should be part of the starting line. Players need to decide which of their fellow teammates to pass to each game. The hot-hand fallacy affects not only those betting on the game, but may even impact the outcome of the game. Moving away from sports and gambling, the hot-hand fallacy can come into play whenever we have to make assumptions or decisions based on a small sample of observations.
For example, consider how politicians become delegates: they have to win a number of primaries. If a politician wins a few primaries in a row, we might be led to believe they will win the general election, even if this sample is not representative of the overall percentage of primaries they are likely to win. If we are all impacted by the hot-hand fallacy, we are all making predictions about the future based on fallacious reasoning.
Since economic models are based on the belief that humans are rational, logical decision-makers, if we act according to the hot-hand fallacy, this model is inaccurate, and we have to revisit our assumptions about human behavior. As humans, we tend to try and find patterns and trends in order to make sense of the world. We are unable to properly understand randomness and chance, causing us to believe that independent events are actually dependent.
The hot-hand fallacy occurs in part because of the law of small numbers. The hot-hand fallacy means we are making decisions based on faulty reasoning instead of logic and rationality.
As a result, we find ourselves making sub-optimal decisions. We misidentify patterns and base following decisions on these made up trends. Although the hot-hand fallacy is most commonly researched in sports and gambling contexts, it can impact day-to-day behavior as well.
The hot-hand fallacy can also impact decision-making when it comes to our consumer behavior, making it a dangerous heuristic. One study conducted by Joseph Johnson, professor of marketing, found that consumers are more likely to buy into a stock when it has been experiencing a positive earning trend. Since the hot-hand fallacy impacts so many of our decisions, by being aware of it, we might think twice before basing our decisions on a small amount of data like a winning streak.
However, it is difficult to overcome our instinctual cognitive heuristics, because we have to look somewhere for rationale when making decisions.
To try to ensure that the hot-hand fallacy does not overshadow logical reasoning, we can try to look at larger sets of data when making predictions about future performance.
The hot-hand fallacy was first described by Amos Tversky, Thomas Gilovich and Robert Vallone, pioneers of behavioral science, in In order to try and understand what causes the hot-hand fallacy, Dr. Alan Castel, Professor of Psychology at UCLA, examined whether age impacted the likelihood that someone will fall victim to the hot-hand fallacy. There is a common belief that the older we get, the more we rely on heuristics for our decision-making.
Castel therefore believed that older adults would be more likely to believe that a player is more likely to make a third successful shot after they had made two successful shots. Next they were asked the following two questions:. Castel found that older participants were more likely to answer yes to both questions, suggesting they were influenced to a greater degree by the hot-hand fallacy.
This suggests awareness of the hot-hand fallacy might not be enough to counter it, as with age, we would assume people would have experienced more random sequence events.
