Cognitive aspects of gerrymandering
Topoi 20 (2):203-212 (2001)
Abstract
Some philosochical and cognitive aspects of political gerrymandering are investigated. The basic assumption of gerrymandering practices is that regions be connected. This assumption is questioned, as it seems to result for a cognitive bias for connectedness (a preference for unitary objects).Author's Profile
