Aprendizagem supersticiosa, Excesso de confiança, Feedback tardioResumo
A aprendizagem atua como uma espada de dois gumes, pois pode gerar rotinas positivas ou negativas. Como saber se a experiência utilizada em uma decisão resulta de aprendizagem supersticiosa? O objetivo deste artigo é aprofundar a compreensão da propensão à aprendizagem supersticiosa (PAS), que ocorre quando a experiência subjetiva da aprendizagem é convincente, mas as conexões entre causas e efeitos não são corretas, podendo dificultar o desenvolvimento dos negócios e até levar à mortalidade organizacional. A coleta de dados foi realizada por questionário eletrônico, com 173 respostas válidas analisadas no SmartPLS 4. Um item foi excluído por carga não significante, e feedback tardio e ambíguo foram agrupados por falta de validade discriminante. Essas modificações atenderam aos critérios de validade e confiabilidade. Apenas a hipótese H1c(+) foi suportada. Destacam-se o desenvolvimento da escala de feedback tardio/ambíguo e o alerta sobre a importância da reflexão, mesmo diante de resultados positivos.
