Abstract :
This research aims at studying the cognitive bias in investors' behavior for stock price fluctuations in Tehran Stock Exchange. The methodology of this research was descriptive-correlational and path-analysis. The statistical population of this research was all the listed investors in Tehran Stock Exchange out of which, 384 people were selected by the convenient sampling method. Morgan table was used in this research to determine the sample volume. The measurement tools were the researcher-made questionnaires whose validity and reliability was confirmed after design and evaluation by professors and statistical methods. In addition, the beta coefficient was calculated to identify and compare the intensity and effect of cognitive bias components. The results of studying the mediating relationships of research variables showed the positive and significant relationship in 0.001 level between the cognitive bias and investors' behavior under low fluctuations with path coefficient (indirect) (0.35). In addition, there was a positive and significant relationship between the cognitive bias and investors' behavior under the high fluctuations with path coefficient (indirect) (-0.30) in 0.001 level. Therefore, it can be claimed that the cognitive bias reduced under the low fluctuations. As a result, the investors' behaviors were less influenced by the cognitive bias. On the other hand, the high fluctuations negatively influenced the investors' behavior and increased the errors.
