Abstract

Cushman claims that post hoc rationalization of habitual behavior can improve future reasoning. His characterization of habits includes two components: (1) habitual behavior is a non-rational process, and (2) habitual behavior is sometimes rationalized. We argue that Cushman fails to show any habits that are apt targets for rationalization. Thus, it's unclear when - if ever - rationalizing habits would improve reasoning.

摘要

库什曼声称，对习惯性行为的事后合理化可以改善未来的推理。他对习惯的描述包括两个组成部分：（1）习惯性行为是非理性的过程，（2）习惯性行为有时是可以合理化的。我们认为，库什曼未能展示任何适合合理化的习惯。因此，不清楚何时（如果有的话）合理化习惯会改善推理。
