This study uses the newsvendor problemto investigate the correlations between thinking orientation, overconfidence, and economic outcome. We aim to shed light on possible interconnections between these variables and extend the existing conceptual models of thinking orientation and overconfidence. To test the conceptual model and the corresponding hypotheses empirically, we employed a laboratory experiment with 50 hypothetical decision periods in which 142 participants ordered a highly profitable product. We found compelling evidence that suggests overprecision as themediating variable between thinking orientation and the economic outcome. Furthermore, this research offers some practical implications.
