f asked, "Which is more probable? A. The New York Yankees will not be in the lead after the first half of the baseball season but will win their division. B. The New York Yankees will not be in the lead after the first half of the baseball season." Most people would answer A, although A is less likely to be true than B. According to Tversky and Kahneman, such faulty conclusions are based on

the the representativeness heuristic

Explanation:

The representativeness heuristic was proposed by psychologists Amos Tversky and Daniel Kahneman in the early 1970s. This heuristic is used in making judgements or rather "near approximations" under uncertainty. it works by judging an event based on how similar it is to a parent event/population or a past event that looks just like it. This heuristic is however prone to errors and therefore is a bias since events may be wrongly judged even they appear similar to a parent event  

uses : -

1.aneroid barometers primarily measure whether pressure is rising or falling.

2.aneroid barometers are often used for reading pressure in homes and recreational boats.  

3.other uses may include barographs in meteorology and altimeters in modern aircraft.  

4.this type of barometer can announce whether a high or low pressure system is coming or whether it is becoming more intense.  

5.there are different types of aneroid barometers, such as the altimeter, which measures altitude, or distance above sea level.  

6.another example is a barograph, which is a modified aneroid barometer that provides constant readings of atmospheric pressure on graph paper.  

7.when used in this capacity, the aneroid barometer can store a week's worth of data.

android diameter a device for measuring atmospheric pressure , often specially calibrated for use as an altimeter ,consisting of a box or chamber partially exhaused of air, having an elastic top and a pointer to indicate the degree of compression of the top caused by the external air

muslims have taken his goods and products to different parts of asia an indonesia. sometimes just traveled and trade, but in other occasions, stayed in the place and made a living.
