engine of capitalists optimism

tendency to see positive side and to expect more favorable outcome -changing how we think decreases emotional impacts

norm theory

that nontraditional behavior (such as that associated with collective action) develops in crowds as a result of the emergence of new behavioral norms in response to a precipitating crisis. -moses illusion (how many animals of each kind did moses take into the ark) -moses took no animals in the ark, noah did -ark put a biblical context on it so moses was not surprising to hear if you said George Bush, you would be surprised

surprise is active and conscious

waiting for an S (S-R pairing), S does not happen (surprised event did not happen)

anchors, heuristics, stereotypes, reference pts, framing effects

why we aren't critical thinkers:

associatively coherent

yielding a self-reinforcing pattern of cognitive, emotional, and physical responses that is both diverse and integrated -the event of a lost wallet could evoke many different causes, slipped, left in a restaurant, etc. but the ideas of lost wallet, NY, and crowds jointly evoke the thought of pickpocketed.

passive surprise

you don't wait for these events but are not surprised when they happen

reversals

you have the task of setting compensation for victims of a violent crime - judge differently based on whether they usually go to a store or not poignancy effect (opinion is the same until you hear something else)

active surprise

you know you are waiting for a particular event to happen, will be surprised if it does not happen
