  1. More successful predictions of my #BoundedReflectivism & #EpistemicIdentity article from 2022?

    From about 2017 or 2018, I reviewed evidence suggesting that reflective thinking often helps, but may even hinder our judgment depending on factors like whether we are reasoning based on shared identities and epistemic standards (doi.org/10.1111/meta.12534).

    Years later Robb Willer et al. solicited ideas for debiasing political judgments. After years of testing 25 different interventions, their results are published in #Science: doi.org/10.1126/science.adh476

    They found that biased evaluations of politicized facts were impacted by both
    - REFLECTION (on potential misperceptions of undemocratic actions) and
    - shared IDENTITY cues (which could help *or* hinder!)
