Heuristic cues as perceptual filters : factors influencing public support for nuclear research reactor in Singapore by Ho, Shirley S., Xiong, Rui, Chuah, Agnes Soo Fei

“…Based on the data from a nationally representative door-to-door survey of 1000 adult Singaporeans, we found that the public mainly depend on heuristics, such as religiosity, benefit perception, and trust in relevant authorities, to form attitudes towards the use of a nuclear research reactor, revealing a tendency to employ mental shortcuts for decision making. …”
