Daniel Kahneman

Daniel Kahneman appears in [[155-meimao-neng-dang-fan-chi-ma-xiang-zhuanqian-gai-zuo-dian-sha-jieju-shi-ying-bimian-shenme-xingwei-jingjixue-siwei-you-shenme-yong-920167210|episode 155]] as the behavioral-economics figure used to introduce prospect theory and Loss Aversion / 损失厌恶. The source uses him to show why the traditional rational-person assumption is a useful model but not a complete description of real economic choice.

His source role is practical rather than biographical. Kahneman helps the episode connect [[SocialPsychology|social psychology]] with Economic Way Of Thinking: people decide with reference points, fear of loss, emotions, and context, so consumer and investment decisions need psychological self-suspicion as well as arithmetic.
