Representativeness bias occurs when certain characteristics are used to put an investment in a category and the individual concludes that it will have the characteristics of investments in that category.

4

Anchoring and adjustment bias refers to basing expectations on a prior number and overweighting its importance, making adjustments in relation to that number as new information arrives.

5

Mental accounting bias refers to viewing money in different accounts or from different sources differently when making investment decisions.

7

Availability bias refers to putting undue emphasis on information that is readily available, easy to recall, or based narrowly on personal experience or knowledge.

8

Loss-aversion bias arises from feeling more pain from a loss than pleasure from an equal gain.

9

Overconfidence bias occurs when market participants overestimate their own intuitive ability or reasoning.

10

Self-control bias occurs when individuals lack self-discipline and favor short-term satisfaction over long-term goals.
