Study Summary
Decision making capacity fatigues after repeated decisions similar to skeletal muscle. The result is decision fatigue, in which subsequent decisions are altered toward the status quo. Patients are at risk for decision fatigue yet it has not been studied. The Investigator proposes a randomized study in the outpatient setting in patients at high risk for needing to make complex decisions, in an effort to determine the impact of decision fatigue on participant self-control and subsequent choices.
