Critics of intelligence tests - writers such as Robert Sternberg, Howard Gardner, and Daniel Goleman - have argued in recent years that these tests neglect important qualities such as emotion, empathy, and interpersonal skills. However, such critiques imply that though intelligence tests may miss certain key noncognitive areas, they encompass most of what is important in the cognitive domain. In this book, Keith Stanovich challenges this widely held assumption. Stanovich shows that IQ tests (or their proxies, such as the SAT) are radically incomplete as measures of cognitive functioning. They fail to assess traits that most people associate with 'good thinking', skills such as judgement and decision-making. Such cognitive skills are crucial to real-world behaviour, affecting the way we plan, evaluate critical evidence, judge risks and probabilities, and make effective decisions. IQ tests fail to assess these skills of rational thought, even though they are measurable cognitive processes. Rational thought is just as important as intelligence, Stanovich argues, and it should be valued as highly as the abilities currently measured on intelligence tests.
Keith E. Stanovich is Emeritus Professor of Applied Psychology and Human Development at the University of Toronto and former Canada Research Chair of Applied Cognitive Science. He is the author of over 200 scientific articles and seven books. He received his BA degree in psychology from Ohio State University in 1973 and his PhD in psychology from the University of Michigan in 1977.
当初看这本书的时候把它当作一部拓展视野的读物,认为会像怪诞心理学那样,有点幽默但又会教授你加个视角去看世界。但事实却完全不一样,就像书中说的那样,我们无不时刻在遵循着牛顿定理,同样我们的大脑也无不时刻在遵循着贝叶斯公式… 生活中我并算不上是个有...
评分全书的精华都在第二部分,就是常见的思维误区。第二部分绝对值五颗星!哈哈。第一部分都在论证为啥聪明人也会犯傻,其实就是探讨主流智商测试的缺陷,对个人而言没有太大的帮助……作者写的很严谨,书也就没有那么好读,以下是边看边做的一些笔记,可以配合看书的时候一起看,...
评分在一次采访中,记者问道:您有没有写书的计划? 巴菲特(伯克希尔主席):如果我要写书的话,书名就是《为什么聪明人总是做傻事》。 芒格(伯克希尔副主席):那就是我的自传。 本书作者斯坦诺维奇试图回答的正是这一问题。 (一)理性的定义 理性的定义是:对世界有正确的...
评分理性 在知识变现时代你听过最多的话便是「听过很多道理,却依然过不好一生」。那么是那里出现了问题呢?可能你根本没听过什么道理,高估了你听过的道理。也可能是你听过的道理,已经不符合这个时代的潮流。那么,在 21 世纪,哪些道理才值得我们知道呢。答案是,理性。如阳志平...
评分一句话概括:聪明不等于理性,理性决定人是否会做蠢事。 读后感: ”智商“,这是个被大众用烂的词,就像”知识“一样。绝大多数人对日常生活都没有深思,有的,只是思考的姿态。很多人都认为 ”智商“和”知识“都是多多益善。谁不想被别人夸赞智商高?所谓的”智商高“...
把Thinking, Fast and Slow的内容包个“智商”的皮,再到处拿点成果就成书了,那写书也太容易了吧...书中关于Daniel C. Dennett的“直觉泵”倒是不错的指引,贝叶斯公式的应用也初露端倪。

评分还需回过头重读一些章节,以及梳理整理写篇笔记之类。个人觉得理性这是学校教育缺失的一环,是每个人都需要补课的。

评分关于irrationality写得挺中规中矩的一本书,作者还是俺大学的prof!如果对irrationality有兴趣的话,建议看the upside of irrationality,写得通俗又好玩。对于已经完全知晓这一领域,例如Bayesian formula玩的易如反掌的人,要么直接忽略要么recap作者最后一章的cognitive miser架构。
