E17: Critical Decisions & Local Rationality: Tools for making sense of situations
Why did they do that, what an idiot! What if our inability to understand the apparent stupidity of an action, after the fact, is more an issue with us, than with the decisions or actions of the person you're judging?
What are better ways--specific tools--to unpack the critical decisions and actions, and make sense of the local rationality of people caught within these situations?
Today's pod unpacks two articles:
- Klein, G. A., Calderwood, R., & Macgregor, D. (1989). Critical decision method for eliciting knowledge. IEEE Transactions on systems, man, and cybernetics, 19(3), 462-472.
- Roe, L. Why it made sense at the time: Local rationality questions for healthcare investigations.
