SUMMARY:Thinking, Fast and Slow
DESCRIPTION:Some thoughts arise automatically in the mind, with no sense of
  control or mental effort; an example is what happens when we see the expre
 ssion 2 + 2. Other thoughts are accompanied by the subjective experience of
  mental effort, and sometimes by a serial rule-governed process. This eleme
 ntary duality is the core of many psychological theories developed in the l
 ast 25 years. I present a particular version, which builds on the metaphor 
 of two distinct Systems in the mind: an automatic System 1 and an effortful
  System 2. System 1 can be identified with associative memory, and System 2
  with the function of executive control. The characteristics of the two Sys
 tems and the interaction between them provide an interpretation of a large 
 and diverse set of phenomena of judgment and choice that have been observed
  over the last 40 years of psychological research. In particular, the chara
 cteristics of System 1 explain both the marvels of successful intuition and
  the superficial, biased and overconfident thoughts and preferences that of
 ten govern human behavior. Daniel Kahneman is Emeritus Professor of Psychol
 ogy and Public Affairs at Princeton University. He studied Psychology and M
 athematics in Jerusalem, earned his PhD in Berkeley 1961 and taught in Harv
 ard, British Columbia and Berkeley before becoming Eugene Higgins Professor
  of Psychology in Princeton in 1993. He is renowned for his works on on the
  psychology of judgment and decision-making. In 2002, Daniel Kahneman was a
 warded the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences "for having integrated insights
  from psychological research into economic science". Image: Daniel Kahneman
