Navigating Factual and Symbolic Beliefs

This chapter explores the distinction between factual beliefs that impact behavior and symbolic beliefs that exist independently of actions, using examples of contradictory beliefs held by individuals.

The conversation also touches on how financial incentives can influence individuals' responses to politicized issues and the impact of incentivizing correct answers to reduce misinformation.
