Can advisors eliminate the outcome bias in judgements and outcome-based emotions?

An outcome bias occurs when performance is evaluated based upon the outcome of the decision rather than upon the quality of the decision itself.

Additionally, the paper analyses whether such advisors can attenuate the emotional experience after decisions’ outcomes by supporting the cognitive understanding of these outcomes
