0 a way of solving problems by discovering things yourself and learning from your own experiences
Thus, we introduce two specialpurpose heuristics: the "follow-boundary" and the "avoid-region".
The heuristics-and-biases tradition is most valuable as an answer to questions of whether, and how, we can improve decisions in the real world.
This strategy is difficult to transfer to heuristics, for they perform well precisely because they are not general, but issue-specific or even situation specific.
Heuristics should rather be tested against the other forms of applied rationality, not against utopian scientific models.
Focusing on simple cognitive heuristics does not make the application of rational standards derived from formal calculi unnecessary.
Our method for distinguishing complements from adjuncts relies on heuristics that are based on local structural information.
But there are few controversial tasks in the heuristics and biases literature where all untutored laypersons disagree with the experts.
The current heuristics mimicking a player can react quickly to changes in conducting style, but the results can be unmusical.
