Abstract
In the book "Thinking, fast and slow", writen by the nobel price winner in econonics and professor in psychology Daniel Kahneman, two different methods of thinking is presented, called system 1 and 2.
System 1 is engaged when a subject is dealing with a task that requires little to no effort, e.g. simple mathematical calculations or rutine work [1].
System 2 is engaged when dealing with tasks in which attention is required and necessary for completing the task, e.g. searching for at specific person in a crowd or parallel parking a car [2].
System 1 does as mentioned rely on knowledge and rutine
For the most part, system 1 runs automatically and system 2 in a low-effort mode.
