Humans are not able to process information as quickly and effectively as the model assumes; they tend not to think ______2_______ as easily as the model calls for; they often deal with a particular option without really assessing its ______3_______ and when they do assess alternatives, they may be externally nebulous about their criteria of evaluation.
