We have coined the expression ‘Ameliorative Psychology’ to refer to the
various empirical work that concerns itself with passing normative judgments
on reasoning strategies and prescribing new and better ways to
reason. In this chapter, we will introduce what we take to be the two main
branches of Ameliorative Psychology. In section 1, we will describe some
of the shocking findings of the predictive modeling literature; and in
section 2, we will try to explain some of these findings. In section 3, we will
briefly explore the other main branch of Ameliorative Psychology—the
psychological investigation into how people tend to reason about everyday
matters.
