Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Heuristics are mental shortcuts or strategies that simplify and speed up decision making. They can be helpful, but they can also lead to errors in judgement, especially in complex situations where more deliberate thinking (System II thinking) may be necessary. Syllogisms are logical arguments that involve deductive reasoning, while insights are sudden realizations or breakthroughs in thinking.
