I'm more concerned with, when you discount the studies that have been shown to be poor, does the overall system 1/system 2 model become weaker? I think it does, a bit, but he takes pains to point out that it is just a shorthand and not a real thing, so we should already be skeptical of taking it too far? How about the thinking vs remembering selves? I think that holds up ok. We're early in our understanding of human behavior. Many of our ideas are wrong. Everything is hard to test. But though the book has flaws and should be evaluated again (would love to see it rewritten), I still think there is usefulness in the models he suggested. And in behavioral economics in general. I think we're far away from having enough replicated studies to be really "sure" of anything, especially with this crisis, but moving in a reasonable direction. |
