How You Make Decisions
BBC Two's Horizon series has explored the topic of decision-making in several episodes, including "How You Make Decisions." This episode features Daniel Kahneman, a Nobel laureate, and examines the conflict between intuition and logic in human decision-making.
The program highlights that decision-making is not always a rational process, as our choices can be influenced by cognitive biases and subconscious factors.
Another episode titled "How to Make Better Decisions" from 2007-2008 also addressed the topic, suggesting that simple mathematical approaches can lead to more effective decisions.
Additionally, a 2014 episode titled "The Invisible Fight" investigated the limits of human attention and how it affects decision-making.
The documentary emphasizes that our fast, intuitive mind often makes decisions without us being aware, while our slow, logical system is less involved in everyday choices.
This hidden auto-pilot can lead to systematic mistakes, affecting our spending, beliefs, and opinions.
