Differentiating System One and System Two in Decision Making

The distinction between system one and system two, coined by Kiestanovich, was pivotal in resolving controversies in judgment and decision making research. While some questioned conclusions based on failures of intuitive thinking, others found that varying contexts could eliminate cognitive illusions. This distinction proved crucial in understanding how errors in thinking could be rectified, as highlighted in Gerd Gigerinzer's work on making cognitive illusions disappear.
