Motivated numeracy and enlightened self-government (2017, background): “Popular risk perceptions, it is thought, tend to originate in a rapid, heuristicdriven form of information processing – what decision scientists refer to as ‘System 1’ reasoning (Stanovich & West, 2000; Kahneman, 2003).”
EPISTEMIC ANXIETY AND ADAPTIVE INVARIANTISM (2010, background): “We have a well-established general tendency to minimize cognitive effort, or to be “cognitive misers”, in Stanovich’s expression (Stanovich & West, 2000, 2008), but there is individual variation here, and there are also conditions under which we can be stimulated to find cognitive effort unusually…”
