Choice blindness and the non-unitary nature of the mind (Commentary on von Hippel and Trivers)

På svenska

Author

Summary, in Swedish

Abstract in Undetermined

Experiments on choice blindness support von Hippel & Trivers's (VH&T's) conception of the mind as fundamentally divided, but they also highlight a problem for VH&T's idea of non-conscious self-deception: If I try to trick you into believing that I have a certain preference, and the best way is to also trick myself, I might actually end up having that preference, at all levels of processing.
