Abstract
We conducted a systematic review of 143 empirical studies of advice-based decision making published in management or psychology between 2006 and 2020. We identi fi ed two distinct streams of the literature. The fi rst, behavioral research, features experimental research on advice-based decisions conducted in laboratories. The second, organizational research, featuresobservational fi eldresearchonadvice-baseddecisionsinorganizations.Weorganized the fi ndings from the two research streams around three sequential stages: advice solicitation and provision, advice utilization, and the outcomes of advice-based decisions. Our review reveals the two streams to be highly complementary — with behavioral research focusing primarily on advice utilization and organizational research focusing primarily on advice solicitation. We consolidate key fi ndings across the two streams. We also identify key challenges for future research, such as greater emphasis on the social aspects of advice-based decisions and the continued development and re fi nement of normative benchmarks.
