Apparently, when it comes to complex strategic decisions, a shorter thinking time is associated with a higher quality of decisions. The study is limited in as much as the study is about chess, and the implication is extrapolated out to all aspects of decision making.

I’d take this with a pinch of salt, but there is something interesting to consider.

See the LMU Munich website for more details.
