Daniel Kahneman

    Daniel Kahneman was een Israëlisch-Amerikaanse psycholoog wiens werk zich verdiepte in de cognitieve processen die ten grondslag liggen aan menselijk oordeel en besluitvorming. Samen met Amos Tversky legde hij een cognitieve basis voor veelvoorkomende menselijke fouten, waarbij hij heuristieken en biases onderzocht. Kahneman onderzocht uitvoerig hoe mensen risico's en beloningen waarnemen en ontwikkelde de cruciale Prospect Theory. Zijn onderzoek heeft de gedragseconomie en psychologie aanzienlijk vooruitgeholpen door diepgaande inzichten te bieden in de rationaliteit en irrationaliteit van de menselijke geest.

      From the world leaders in strategic thinking and bestselling authors of Thinking Fast and Slow and Nudge comes a transformative exploration of decision-making. Consider the scenario where two doctors in the same city provide differing diagnoses for identical patients, or two judges issue varying sentences for similar crimes. These discrepancies illustrate noise: the variability in judgments that should be consistent. In this insightful work, Daniel Kahneman, Olivier Sibony, and Cass R. Sunstein reveal how noise leads to errors across various fields, including medicine, law, public health, economic forecasting, forensic science, child protection, creative strategy, performance review, and hiring. Despite its prevalence, noise often goes unrecognized by individuals and organizations, resulting in significant costs. Rich with innovative ideas and employing the sharp analysis that characterized their previous bestsellers, this book delves into why humans are prone to noise and bias in their decision-making. It highlights that we frequently make poor judgments, often more than we realize. By presenting a few straightforward remedies, this groundbreaking work offers insights into how we can improve our decision-making processes.

       The contemporary rabbi is influenced by the modern rabbinic establishments throughout the world, including the rabbinate in Israel. The rabbinate's monopoly on opinions and interpretations prevents rabbis from expressing their individual positions out of fear of delegitimization. The current structure gives the public a negative impression of the rabbinic establishment. The Importance of the Community Rabbi strives to describe and delineate key requirements for a good rabbi, i.e., one who can provide socially acceptable halachic solutions within the parameters of Orthodox thinking. Rabbi Sperber elucidates the halachic techniques and mechanisms that may be used toward this goal. These are further illustrated with stories from rabbinic literature and examples from various responsa.

      Stupidity is all around is, from the coworkers who won't stop hitting 'reply all' to the former school friends posting conspiracy theories on Facebook. But in order to battle idiocy, we must first understand it. In The Psychology of Stupidity, some of the world's leading psychologists and thinkers - including Nobel Prize winners - will show you... why smart people sometimes believe in utter nonsense, how our lazy brains cause us to make the wrong decisions, why trying to debate fools is a trap, how media manipulation and Internet overstimulation makes us dumber, why the stupidest people don't think they're stupid. Their wisdom and wit are a balm for our aggrieved souls and a beacon of hope in a world of morons.

    • With Instaread Summaries, you can get the summary of a book in 30 minutes or less. We read every chapter, summarize and analyze it for your convenience. This is an Instaread Summary of Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman. Below is a preview of the earlier sections of the summary: In this book, Daniel Kahneman aims to identify and understand errors of judgment and choice, providing a richer vocabulary to discuss these issues. Collaborating with Amos Tversky, they researched intuitive statistics and realized their own intuitions were flawed. Their subjective judgments were biased, leading them to accept research findings based on insufficient evidence and to gather too few observations in their studies. They sought to determine if other researchers faced similar challenges. Their findings revealed that participants often ignored relevant statistical facts, relying instead on resemblance as a heuristic to simplify complex judgments. This reliance led to predictable biases in their predictions. They discovered that people assess the importance of issues based on how easily they can recall them, largely influenced by media coverage. Kahneman offers insights into how the mind operates, highlighting the distinctions between fast (intuitive) and slow (deliberate) thinking. He emphasizes a common limitation: an excessive confidence in what individuals believe they know.

    • Наши действия и поступки определены нашими мыслями. Но всегда ли мы контролируем наше мышление? Нобелевский лауреат Даниэль Канеман объясняет, почему мы подчас совершаем нерациональные поступки и как мы принимаем неверные решения. У нас имеется две системы мышления. «Медленное» мышление включается, когда мы решаем задачу или выбираем товар в магазине. Обычно нам кажется, что мы уверенно контролируем эти процессы, но не будем забывать, что позади нашего сознания в фоновом режиме постоянно работает «быстрое» мышление – автоматическое, мгновенное и неосознаваемое…

      In the highly anticipated Thinking, Fast and Slow , Kahneman takes us on a groundbreaking tour of the mind and explains the two systems that drive the way we think. System 1 is fast, intuitive, and emotional; System 2 is slower, more deliberative, and more logical. Kahneman exposes the extraordinary capabilities—and also the faults and biases—of fast thinking, and reveals the pervasive influence of intuitive impressions on our thoughts and behavior. The impact of loss aversion and overconfidence on corporate strategies, the difficulties of predicting what will make us happy in the future, the challenges of properly framing risks at work and at home, the profound effect of cognitive biases on everything from playing the stock market to planning the next vacation—each of these can be understood only by knowing how the two systems work together to shape our judgments and decisions. Engaging the reader in a lively conversation about how we think, Kahneman reveals where we can and cannot trust our intuitions and how we can tap into the benefits of slow thinking. He offers practical and enlightening insights into how choices are made in both our business and our personal lives—and how we can use different techniques to guard against the mental glitches that often get us into trouble. Thinking, Fast and Slow will transform the way you think about thinking.

      Aký rozdiel je medzi prirodzeným (intuitívnym) a formálno-logickým usudzovaním? Sú všetky logické chyby zlé? Aké postupy (heuristiky) používa intuitívne usudzovanie? Prečo sú hybnou silou rozvoja intelektu sociálne vzťahy? Aké komunikačné riziká sú spojené s informáciami získanými prostredníctvom svedectva? Na základe čoho vieme odhadnúť, čo sa deje v mysli iného? Prečo sa etnické klasifikácie zásadne líšia od iných sociálnych klasifikácií, napríklad profesijných či športových? Práve na tieto otázky hľadajú odpovede autori knihy Sociálna inteligencia. Prvú časť knihy tvoria preklady prác renomovaných zahraničných autorov (D. Kahneman, G. Gigerenzer, N. Humphrey a D. Sperber). Druhá časť knihy obsahuje príspevky domácich autorov (J. Bašnáková, M. Filko, M. Kanovský, V. Kvasnička, E. Pauková, J. Pospíchal a J. Rybár). Sme presvedčení, že kniha môže pomôcť vedeckým pracovníkom a študentom počítačovej vedy, psychológie, antropológie, ekonómie a ďalších prírodných a sociálnych vied zorientovať sa v danej oblasti. Dúfame, že poslúži aj všetkým, ktorí sa chcú bližšie oboznámiť so súvislosťami medzi intuitívnym usudzovaním a sociálnou inteligenciou.

    • Judgment pervades human experience. Do I have a strong enough case to go to trial? Will the Fed change interest rates? Can I trust this person? This book examines how people answer such questions. How do people cope with the complexities of the world economy, the uncertain behavior of friends and adversaries, or their own changing tastes and personalities? When are people's judgments prone to bias, and what is responsible for their biases? This book compiles psychologists' best attempts to answer these important questions.

      Choices, Values, and Frames presents an empirical and theoretical challenge to classical utility theory, offering prospect theory as an alternative framework. Extensions and applications to diverse economic phenomena and to studies of consumer behavior are discussed. The book also elaborates on framing effects and other demonstrations that preferences are constructed in context, and it develops new approaches to the standard view of choice-based utility. As with the classic 1982 volume, Judgment Under Uncertainty, this volume is comprised of papers published in diverse academic journals. The editors have written several new chapters and a preface to provide a context for the work.
