information has globally no impact compared to the control group. None of the population variable has any impact. This suggests that the quantum model may indeed capture basic regularities of the mind relevant to decision-making.
2 The Quantum Persuasion Approach
Let us first briefly describe the classical approach (Bayesian persuasion) developed by Kamenica and Gentzkow [12]. We have a person call him Sender who tries to influence a decision-maker call her Receiver by means of an information structure or a measurement that generates information. Information a ects Receiver’s beliefs which in turn a ect her evaluation of uncertain choice alternatives and therefore the choice she makes. In the classical context Receiver updates her beliefs using Bayes rule and therefore the power of Sender is constrained by Bayesian plausibility - that is the expected posteriors must equal the priors.
The quantum persuasion approach has been developed in the same vein as the Bayesian persuasion. A central motivation is that persuasion seems much more e ective than what comes out of the Bayesian approach. So instead of assuming that agents are classical, it has been proposed that they are quantum-like. This means that the representation of reality upon which they make decision does not evolved according to Bayes rule but follows instead von Neumann-L˝uder’s rule (vNL). vNL updating has been shown to be an expression of dynamic consistency in such a context (see [7]).
The present paper aims at experimentally testing some predictions of the theory of quantum persuasion. More precisely as shown in [6], Sender can use ‘distracting’ measurements as tools to influence Receiver. A distracting measurement corresponds to a measurement that generates information that is incompatible (or Bohr complementary) with the information used by Receiver to evaluate the choice alternatives for decision-making. The objective is to switch the focus of Receiver’s mind (distract her) which changes her cognitive state or her beliefs although no information relevant to her concern is provided. The following example from [5] illustrates the point.
Example
A consumer is considering the purchase of a second hand smartphone at price 30eof uncertain value to her. What matters to her is its technical quality which may be standard or excellent. She holds beliefs about the quality of the smartphone. Based on those beliefs, she assigns an expected utility value to the smartphone which determines her decision whether or not to buy the item. Receiver’s expected utility for the smartphone in belief state B is represented by the trace of the product of operators A and B2:
Eu (A; B) = Tr (AB) = (1/5) 100 + (4/5) 0 = 20 < 30. |
(1) |
Given belief B Receiver does not want to buy the smartphone.
2 For a complete formulation of choice theory in the quantum context, see [7].

The Power of Distraction: An Experimental Test of Quantum Persuasion |

Can Sender persuade Receiver to buy by selecting an appropriate measurement? Consider another property (perspective) of the smartphone that we refer to as Glamour (i.e. whether celebrities have this brand or not). The two properties (perspectives) are assumed incompatible in the mind of Receiver. Receiver can think in terms of either one of the two perspectives but she cannot synthesize (combine in a stable way) pieces of information from the two perspectives. This is illustrated in Fig. 1.

Fig. 1. Receiver’s cognitive state.
Assume that Sender brings up the discussion to the Glamour perspective and performs the measurement so Receiver learns whether her preferred celebrity has this smartphone. With some probability p (say 0.9) the new cognitive state is B = G and with the complementary probability 1 − p = .1 it is B = N G.
We note that:
Eu (A; B ) = Tr (AB ) = 50 > 30. |
(2) |
Eu (A; B ) = Tr (AB ) = 50 > 30. |
(3) |
In both cases Receiver is persuaded to buy and Sender gets a positive utility. In the example above it is easy to show that the new belief state violates
Bayesian plausibility - the expected posteriors for the event ‘the smartphone is excellent’ are:
5p + .5(1 − p) = .5 |
(4) |
which is larger than the priors which equals 0.2. Moreover the measurement Glamour is not relevant to the beliefs about the quality of the used smartphone. It is a distraction. Yet it a ects the beliefs and the associated decision. In a Bayesian context irrelevant/uninformative data do not modify beliefs and therefore cannot be used as means of persuasion.
