Heuristics are cognitive strategies or mental shortcuts that people use to simplify decision-making and problem-solving processes. These strategies can help individuals arrive at solutions more quickly than more complex methods, particularly in situations where there is uncertainty or incomplete information. Heuristics are often based on prior experiences, common sense, and rules of thumb. While heuristics can be useful and efficient, they can also lead to biases and systematic errors in judgment.
