The Elephant Rider model (or whatever similar childrens model of the mind so far developed - Plato's Chariot, Kahnemans System 1/System 2, Freuds id/ego/super ego, Hobbes Passions+ Reason, Hegels Master-Slave, Cherokee 2 wolves etc etc) is the 3 inch chimp brains attempt at recognizing it is not a single unitary system, but multiple layers. Those layers, and there are many more that what anyone is taught, are a requirement for the system to make predictions over different time horizons. Contradictions between those predictions requires stories for the system to stay coherent. Personality traits are one such story. |
