He lays forth the cognitive approach model of analysis, which relies on the power of perceptions as well as the “psychological environments” of the decision makers’ beliefs and backgrounds (Rosati, 2000: 50). Their decisions will reflect these cognitive aspects as they analyze information, debate among themselves, and determine the possible outcomes. Rosati’s outline of the cognitive approach model assumes that the perceptions made by policymakers diverge from reality in a way that we can detect, which I will attempt to do in this
