Behavioural economist Daniel Kahneman’s book Thinking, Fast and Slow was published in 2011, and in this video clip he explains the difference between thinking fast and intuitively (System 1), and a more slow and reasoned approach (System 2). Cognitive biases and prejudices are inevitable and part of the snap judgments of System 1, but by using deeper System 2 thinking we can challenge those prejudices and rebuild our stereotypes. Kahneman’s thoughtful theories are bound to prompt System 2 in those who watch this video. (quote is from this post from psychcentral)
That quote was actually explaining this video from the Guardian, but I cannot embed it so I embedded another I found on youtube.
The video at the Guardian is worth listening to…I just know so many of my readers often don’t click on links!!
