Cognitive algebra versus representativeness heuristic
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 19 (1):17-17 (1996)
Abstract
Cognitive algebra strongly disproved the representativeness heuristic almost before it was published; and therewith it also disproved the base rate fallacy. Cognitive algebra provides a theoretical foundation for judgment-decision theory through its joint solution to the two fundamental problems – true measurement of subjective values, and cognitive rules for integration of multiple determinants.My notes
