TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the Brentano-Husserl notion of the directedness of the mental and the notion of intentionality, and present a theory of action, meaning and communication, reference, and knowledge.

Abstract: Publisher Summary “Behaviorism” stands for a variety of attitudes and methodological positions in psychology. There are all kinds of positions whose definitions are often so varied and vague that not even their various proponents agree on them, like logical behaviorism, philosophical behaviorism, methodological behaviorism, radical behaviorism, neobehaviorism, and many more. By “intentionality,” it discusses the Brentano-Husserl notion of the directedness of the mental. The directedness of the mental simply meant that for each mental phenomenon. In studying man, one needs a very comprehensive theory that includes a theory of action, a theory of meaning and communication, a theory of reference, and a theory of knowledge. All of these are interconnected in such a way that evidence is transmitted between the theories.

Judgement under uncertainty: heuristics and biasis
A Tversky,D Kahneman +1 more
Abstract: This article described three heuristics that are employed in making judgements under uncertainty: (i) representativeness, which is usually employed when people are asked to judge the probability that an object or event A belongs to class or process B; (ii) availability of instances or scenarios, which is often employed when people are asked to assess the frequency of a class or the plausibility of a particular development; and (iii) adjustment from an anchor, which is usually employed in numerical prediction when a relevant value is available. These heuristics are highly economical and usually effective, but they lead to systematic and predictable errors. A better understanding of these heuristics and of the biases to which they lead could improve judgements and decisions in situations of uncertainty.

Judgement under Uncertainty: Heuristics and Biasses
TL;DR: The editors introduce the antecedents of their book as three lines of research developed in the 1950s and 1960s: the comparison of clinical and statistical prediction initiated by Paul Meehl, the study of subjective probability in the Bayesian paradigm introduced to psychology by Ward Edwards, and the investigation of heuristics and strategies of reasoning.
