Kudos to Kahneman for owning his mistake. That's the right sort of behavior to model for younger generations of scholars. I aspire to this level of self-aware

I aspire to this level of self-awareness, accountability and integrity.
- whipoodle 9y agoSure. Though maybe he could say it a little louder than just a comment on a random blog post. Just a thought
- Lon7 9y agoTo be fair, the "train-wreck" the blog comments on was predicted by Kahneman himself back in 2012. In fact, as shown in the article, he was personally urging researchers to question and check if the priming research studies were actually correct. But you are right. I still see his book cited all the time in popular media. He should be much more vocal about what he got wrong.
