Heuristics all the way up?
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 23 (5):758-759 (2000)
| Abstract | I investigate whether heuristics similar to those studied by Gigerenzer and his co-authors can apply to the problem of finding a suitable heuristic for a given problem. I argue that not only can heuristics of a very similar kind apply but they have the added advantage that they need not incorporate specific trade-off parameters for balancing the different desiderata of a good decision-procedure. | |||||||||
