Human Fallacies which we can strive to compensate for
Scientists have spent many hours experimenting with human beings to find fallacies in their thinking
proceedures. Whereas it is ego boosting to think that we can simply follow our own instincts and make
correct decisions, it has been placed in serious doubt by the work of these scientists. Here is a partial list of
books containing some of these fallacies:
Heuristics and Biases: The Psychology of Intuitive Judgment by Thomas Gilovich
Choices, Values, and Frames by Daniel Kahneman
Judgment under Uncertainty: Heuristics and Biases by Daniel Kahneman
Extensional versus Intuitive Reasoning
The Conjunction Fallacy in Probability Judgement
