Is it true that innovation occurs only in abundant environments? Baumard defends that increased standards of living are a necessary condition for a change in life history strategy to help understand the Industrial Revolution. Here, we argue that many examples of innovations occur in scarce environments when there is near-zero opportunity cost. We suggest potential psychological pathways to explain this dual-cognitive process.
创新是否只发生在富足的环境中？Baumard 认为，生活水平的提高是改变生活史策略的必要条件，有助于理解工业革命。在这里，我们认为，当机会成本接近于零时，许多创新例子发生在稀缺环境中。我们提出了一些潜在的心理途径来解释这种双重认知过程。
