Decision fatigue
Decision fatigue is a decline in the quality of decisions or a feeling of overload after many choices, especially when under stress and limited energy.
Definition
The concept of decision fatigue describes a practical experience in which subsequent decisions become increasingly difficult, more impulsive or postponed. In the literature it is associated with self-control and cognitive costs, but it is worth using it with caution: not as a simple law about the "decision battery", but as a signal of overload of attention, energy and selection criteria.
