| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to empirically and computationally reveal the nature of human adaptive heuristics for reasoning and judgment and to construct a theoretical framework that provides an integrative perspective on a wide variety of phenomena. We have obtained a significant achievenent With regard to causal reasoning and probability judgment. We clarified the descriptive validity and adaptive rationality of the dual-factor heuristic model and we explained various errors in thinking including the base rate fallacy using the equiprobability hypothesis.
