Cognitive-experiential self-theory integrates the cognitive and the psychodynamic unconscious by assuming the existence of two parallel, interacting modes of information processing: a rational system and an emotionally driven experiential system. Support for the theory is provided by the convergence of a wide variety of theoretical positions on two similar processing modes; by real-life phenomena--such as conflicts between the heart and the head; the appeal of concrete, imagistic, and narrative representations; superstitious thinking; and the ubiquity of religion throughout recorded history--and by laboratory research, including the prediction of new phenomena in heuristic reasoning.
理性系统和情感驱动的体验系统，将认知和心理动力学无意识整合在一起。对该理论的支持来自于多种理论立场在两种相似处理模式上的趋同；来自于现实生活中的现象，如心与脑的冲突、具体形象和叙事表征的吸引力、迷信思维以及宗教在整个有记录历史中的普遍存在；还来自于实验室研究，包括启发式推理中新现象的预测。
