Q Unit 2 Assignments Thematic essay: Thinking, fast and slow Topic: Ariely (2008), Drori (2007), and Kahneman (2011) each discussed differing aspects of decision-making and judgment. Describe a problem you’ve dealt with that was initially created by relying on what Kahneman called “fast thinking” – relying on the System 1 part of your mind. Then, describe how System 2, or “slow thinking,” might have helped you avoid the problem in the first place, and was crucial to helping you resolve the issue. Include in your discussion at least one idea or piece of information from both Ariely (2002) and Drori (2007). Guidelines: Submissions should be between 600-800 words and include in-text citations, and a references page listing the sources used in your essay in APA format.
