How distinct are intuition and deliberation? An eye-tracking analysis of instruction-induced decision modes (2009, background): “As a dissenting opinion it has, however, also been argued that simple heuristics based on LEX or EQW schemes might be the core of intuition (Gigerenzer, 2007): “Good intuitions ignore information.”
Feeling the Future: The Emotional Oracle Effect (2012, unknown): “…is presumably encoded continuously in the background of our conscious attention (Dijksterhuis 2004; Hogarth 2005; Lieberman 2000), the tacit knowledge that we accumulate about the world around us should tend to have a good ecological mapping with a variety of meaningful criteria (Gigerenzer 2007).”
Intuitive and deliberate judgments are based on common principles. (2011, background): “There are, however, exceptions when a skill is learned by observation rather than by instruction, and the nature of the skill, the cues and rules, are never represented in language (Gigerenzer, 2007).”
Mindfulness and Sustainable Behavior: Pondering Attention and Awareness as Means for Increasing Green Behavior (2009, unknown): “…our cognitive shortcuts function well and allow us to, for example, choose what to have for dinner or what to watch on TV without having to expend precious cognitive capacity carefully comparing the pros and cons of each option (Gigerenzer, 2007; Gigerenzer, Todd, & the ABC Research Group, 1999).”
Heuristics: Tools for an Uncertain World (2015, methodology): “This view has been applied to better understand moral behavior (Fleischhut & Gigerenzer, 2013), the nature of intuition (Gigerenzer, 2007), legal decision-making (Dhami, 2003), and social behavior in general (Hertwig, Hoffrage, & the ABC Research Group, 2013).”
The role of teachers’ motivation and mindsets in predicting a (de)motivating teaching style in higher education: a circumplex approach (2020, unknown): “Teachers’ cognitive beliefs, either explicitly or implicitly (Gigerenzer 2007), play a critical role in their daily decision-making regarding a variety of issues, including teachers’ perceptions and behavior in the classroom (Kagan 1992; Pajares 1992).”
Why Heuristics Work (2008, background): “An intuition is defined as a judgment that is fast in consciousness, whose underlying mechanism is unconscious, yet is nevertheless strong enough to act upon (Gigerenzer, 2007).”
Cognitive Biases and Heuristics in Medical Decision Making (2015, background): “While this may sometimes be the case, heuristics can also serve as strengths in that they allow decision makers to use simple rules and to make decisions quickly, which is often necessary in medical practice.(262) For example, the representativeness heuristic, which refers to the assessment of proba”
Risk, Uncertainty, and Heuristics (2014, unknown): “Haldane's talk, “The dog and the Frisbee,” was named after one of these simple rules – the gaze heuristic – which both dogs and baseball players rely on to solve a difficult problem, namely how to catch an object which is flying against a noisy background (Gigerenzer, 2007).”
Dual Process Theories in Behavioral Economics and Neuroeconomics: a Critical Review (2019, background): “…not the sole cause of reasoning errors (viz. because System 2 is sometimes involved), proponents of “ecological rationality” (Gigerenzer et al. 1999; Gigerenzer 2004, 2007, 2008; Gigerenzer and Brighton 2009) argue that it is inappropriate to presume that rationality is constituted by the norms…”
Dual-Process Theories of Higher Cognition (2013, unknown): “Contributing to this alternative interpretation have been evolutionary psychologists, adaptationist modelers, and ecological theorists (Anderson, 1990; Cosmides & Tooby, 1996; Gigerenzer, 2007; Oaksford & Chater, 2007).”
Multiple perspectives on the concept of conditional probability. 'Perspectivas múltiples sobre el concepto del probabilidad condicional' (2012, unknown): “Gut decisions are relatively successful (Gigerenzer, 2007).”
