How would Daniel Kahneman describe the thought process you had while making this decision.

Writing Assignment:

For this assignment I want you to describe a personal story where you or another person made a decision(s) with some of the heuristics described in Thinking Fast and Slow. Your story should include:

1.) An introduction explaining your understanding of the assignment and what the decision was.

2.) How would Daniel Kahneman describe the thought process you had while making this decision.

3.) Use the readings and the theories in the readings to describe the process of making this decision and explain why it was finally made and how it would be rationalized by heuristics using evidence from JDM experimental research in your explanation.

Example: Note: Because I’m a psychologist I use APA citation and format when possible but as long as you properly cite in a way that I can find the references and you explain ideas in your own words you will get full credit for structural clarity of your paper.
