The Quantificational Variability Effect (QVE) is a phenomenon observed in the field of psycholinguistics and cognitive psychology, particularly in studies of how people understand and process quantifiers in language. It refers to the tendency for people to interpret sentences with quantifiers—like "some," "all," "most," and "no"—in a way that is sensitive to the variability of the quantity referred to by those quantifiers.
