Abstract
AbstractReasoning researchers have long proposed dual process models to account for biases in human thinking. These models envisage reasoning as an interplay between fast, intuitive (“System 1”) and slow, deliberate (“System 2”) thought processes. This work helped to put the spotlight on the role of unconscious or intuitive processes in reasoning. However, whereas research on the cognitive unconsciousness in other fields has often highlighted the potential of unconscious cognition, dual process research on thinking has traditionally stressed its limitations. This chapter illustrates how recent advances in dual process theorizing are starting to correct this traditional view and calls for an upgraded role of intuitive “System 1” reasoning.
