Abstract
Simple heuristics that make us smart presents at valuable and valid interpr etation of how we make fast decisions particularly in situations of ignoran ce and uncertainty. What is missing is how this intersects with thinking un der even greater uncertainty or ignorance, such its novice problem solving, and with the development of expert cognition.
