Reasonable social cognition
Richard P. Eibach, Igor GrossmannAbstract
The target article describes social cognitive mechanisms that enable people to make reasonable decisions in situations of interdependent choice where parties have divergent interests. We highlight the need for an integrative program of research on the social-cognitive mechanisms that people use to approximate the reasonableness standard of sound judgment via self-distancing and “inner dialogue” in a variety of decision-making contexts.
