Abstract:
Chater & Loewenstein (C&L) ignore the long history by which social scientists have developed more nuanced and ultimately more helpful ways to understand the relationship between persons and situations. This tradition is reflected and advanced in a large literature on "wise" social-psychological or mindset interventions, which C&L do not discuss yet mischaracterize.
