  • Heuristics

    Open AccessJulian N Marewski, Ulrich HoffrageARTICLEMind & Society2025References: 7

    Together with his co-workers, Herbert Simon developed a research program on heuristics in scientific discovery. Simon saw heuristics as both practical tools for problem-solving, as well as descriptive models of how scientists and others solve problems. Building on Simon’s hybrid notion of heuristics as tools and theories, we extend Simon’s study of heuristics in scientific discovery to scientific justification. This article makes two types of con…

  • Opium in science and society

    Open AccessLutz Bornmann, Julian N MarewskiARTICLEScientometrics2024

    In science and beyond, quantifications are omnipresent when it comes to justifying judgments. Which scientific author, hiring committee-member, or advisory board panelist has not been confronted with page-long publication manuals, assessment reports, evaluation guidelines, calling for p -values, citation rates, h -indices, or other numbers to judge about the ‘quality’ of findings, applicants, or institutions? Yet, many of those of us relying on a…

  • Some Metatheoretical Reflections on Adaptive Decision Making and the Strategy Selection Problem

    Open AccessJulian N Marewski, Arndt Broder et al.ARTICLEJournal of Behavioral Decision…2018Cited by: 1References: 10

    Organisms must be capable of adapting to environmental task demands. Which cognitive processes best model the ways in which adaptation is achieved? People can behave adaptively, so many frameworks assume, because they can draw from a repertoire of decision strategies, with each strategy particularly fitting to certain environmental demands. In contrast to that multi‐mechanism assumption, competing approaches posit a single decision mechanism. The…

  • Five Principles for Studying People’s Use of Heuristics

    Julian N Marewski, Lael J Schooler et al.ARTICLEActa Psychologica Sinica2010

    摘要: 快速节俭启发式框架假定人们使用一套简捷的决策策略—— 启发式—— 进行推理、选择、评价及其他决策。这些启发式策略能顺应任务情境结构中的规律, 利用人类的基本认知能力。正基于此, 启发式成就了适应性行为。本文拟对启发式框架进行回顾, 并简要陈述引导研究者研究人类适应性工具箱的五条原则。我们强调, 启发式模型应(i)精确界定(ii)对照检验(iii)与策略选择理论相符(iv)能评估其对新资料的预测力(v)能既在实验室又在现实世界中得以检验

  • On the theoretical precision and strategy selection problem of a single‐strategy approach

    Open AccessJulian N MarewskiARTICLEJournal of Behavioral Decision…2010References: 1

    According to the fast and frugal heuristics (FFH) program, humans make decisions by selecting from a repertoire of strategies. Glöckner, Betsch, and Schindler criticize such multi‐strategy frameworks for not explaining how people select between the different strategies. As an alternative, they propose a parallel constraint satisfaction (PCS) model that assumes a single strategy for all tasks. However, contrary to Glöckner et al.'s assertions, the…

  • The recognition heuristic in memory‐based inference

    Open AccessThorsten Pachur, Arndt Broder et al.ARTICLEJournal of Behavioral Decision…2007Cited by: 3References: 2

    The recognition heuristic makes the strong claim that probabilistic inferences in which a recognized object is compared to an unrecognized one are made solely on the basis of whether the objects are recognized or not, ignoring all other available cues. This claim has been seriously challenged by a number of studies that have shown a clear effect of additional cue knowledge. In most of these studies, either recognition knowledge was acquired durin…
