The ‘Framing Effect’ framework

The ‘Framing Effect’ framework refers to a cognitive bias where people decide on options based on whether they are presented in a positive or negative manner, or ‘frame’. Essentially, the way information is presented - the ‘frame’ - can significantly influence how we perceive it and subsequently make decisions. This is often used in various fields, such as marketing, politics, and medicine, to influence decision-making and alter perceptions.

For instance, in marketing, a product might be more appealing if its qualities are framed positively (e.g., “95% fat-free” instead of “5% fat”). In healthcare, a treatment might seem more appealing if its success rate is emphasized over its failure rate, even though both pieces of information convey the same message. By understanding the Framing Effect, communicators can tailor their messages to guide decision-making processes and make certain options appear more appealing. This understanding enables individuals and organizations to shape perceptions and decisions more effectively.
