Figure 8
The diagram is titled “Factors that affect Green Building Construction” at the top center, with three arrows pointing downward to “Industry and Economy-Related Factors” on the left, “Policy and Awareness-Related Factors” in the center, and “Environmental and Health-Related Factors” on the right. Along the lower portion of the diagram, cognitive biases are labeled from left to right as “Bounded Rationality”, “Underestimation Bias”, “Status Quo Bias”, “Confirmation Bias”, “Subjective Bias”, “Availability Bias”, “Anchoring Bias”, and “Overconfidence”. From each of these bias labels, multiple curved arrows extend upward toward all three categories, indicating that every cognitive bias connects to each of the three factor groups. The arrows vary in curvature and often cross over one another, forming a dense web of connections between the lower bias labels and the upper categories. Arrowheads indicate direction from the biases to the categories.System dynamic map of the cognitive biases related to the factors. Source: Authors’ own work
