Psychology is beautiful indeed.
There's a quote I heard a while ago from Rory Sutherland that I tell most people about social sciences. Rory said this after he failed to replicate the results of the famous "paradox of choice" jam experiment :
"The point of these experiments isn't so much to find out universal truths, but to find out things worth testing."
Social media works on the exact same premise of the Skinner experiment. Variable reward increases usage.
If I might add, the experimenter in Milgram's experiment did assure subjects that they will take responsbility for what happens in the experiment. Such agency of responsiblity was what amused Milgram the most.
This post was so refreshing. Joyed to see another person fascinated with psychology!
P.s. Your thoughts on Munger's cognitive biases would be the cherry on top :)
