Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse

Es gab eine Zeit, in der es eine ziemlich klare Trennung zwischen den Aufgaben von Philosophen und Psychologen gab, die sich mit dem Schließen und Argumentieren befassten. Zu dieser Zeit waren Philosophen für die Festlegung und Verteidigung der normativen Grundlagen verantwortlich, und Psychologen überprüften, ob sich reale Menschen (einschließlich Wissenschaftler) an diese Normen halten. Weitere Forschungen zeigten jedoch, dass das richtige Verhältnis zwischen dem Normativen und dem Deskriptiven nicht vollständig verstandden ist und dass die beiden auf verschiedene komplizierte Arten miteinander verflochten sind. Dieses Gemeinschaftsprojekt von Psychologen und Philosophen untersuchte diese Verflechtung im Detail. Wir haben einen der führenden normativen Rahmen in der Rationalitätsforschung (den Bayes'schen) im Lichte empirischer Studien auf verschiedene Weise weiterentwickelt und darüber hinaus gezeigt, wie neue theoretische Entwicklungen weitere empirische Untersuchungen motivieren. Dabei ging es uns insbesondere um die Entwicklung eines neuen theoretischen Rahmens für die Theoriebildung und die Frage, wie dieser Rahmen (wenn überhaupt) gestestet werden kann. Insgesamt zeigt unser Projekt, dass die Unterscheidung zwischen dem Normativen und dem Deskriptiven eine produktive Rolle in der Rationalitätsforschung spielen kann und dass es zu dessen Klärung die interdisziplinäre Zusammenarbeit von Teams wie den unseren bedarf.
