Paper Summary

People tend to stick with the status quo when making decisions, but a new method can help change that. By having users input reasons against changing the status quo and then showing them counter-arguments, this method helps people see the benefits of making a change. The study found that this approach can encourage people to break free from the status quo bias and make different choices.
