Abstract
In their use of correlations as a means to distinguish between different vi ews on the normative/descriptive gap, Stanovich & West discuss the competen ce component but neglect the activation-utilization component of performanc e. Different degrees of motivation may introduce systematic variation that is confounded with the variation explained by cognitive capacity.
