Childhood unpredictability, life history, and intuitive versus deliberate cognitive styles
Heuristics, language and medical errors
TLDR
Some of the more common heuristics/biases that may lead to biased decision making and patient harm are discussed, and language in medicine is looked at and how that can lead us to make diagnostic errors.
Metacognitive control in single- vs. dual-process theory
Contrarian profits and representativeness heuristic in the MENA stock markets

Do intuitive and deliberate judgments rely on two distinct neural systems? A case study in face processing
TLDR
This work is among the first to present neural evidence contrary to the predictions of popular dual-systems accounts that propose a clear-cut dichotomy of the processing systems, and to support rather a unified model.
The Reflective Mind: Examining Individual Differences in Susceptibility to Base Rate Neglect with fMRI
TLDR
The results suggest that individual differences in reflective thinking as measured by CRT are related to brain activation in PCC—a region involved in regulating attention between external and internal foci.
Intuitive and deliberate judgments are based on common principles.
TLDR
This work provides convergent arguments and evidence for a unified theoretical approach to both intuitive and deliberative judgments, and adumbrates a unified approach that specifies the critical dimensions on which judgmental situations may vary and the environmental conditions under which rules can be expected to be successful.

TLDR
It is argued that the dual-processing distinction is supported by much recent evidence in cognitive science.
Decisions under Uncertainty: Probabilistic Context Influences Activation of Prefrontal and Parietal Cortices
TLDR
It is concluded that the brain response to uncertainty depends on the demands of the experimental task, and when uncertainty develops over short time scales as information is accumulated toward a decision, dorsal prefrontal and posterior parietal contributions are critical for its resolution.

Smarter Than We Think
TLDR
Results showed that although the inhibition area was specifically activated when stereotypical responses were avoided, the conflict-detection area was activated even when people reasoned stereotypically, suggesting that people detect their bias when they give intuitive responses.
The Nature and Neural Correlates of Semantic Association versus Conceptual Similarity
TLDR
To clarify the neural bases of these semantic components in neurologically intact participants, both types of semantic relationship were investigated in an fMRI study optimized for anterior temporal lobe (ATL) coverage.
