Emotion and Rationality in Educational Problem Solving: From Individuals to Groups

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This paper offers a critical discussion of recent work on the role of emotion in problem‐solving and decision‐making, with particular reference to group processes and group decisions in education and other organization contexts. Based on evidence from neuroscience, we argue first that emotion, rather than being contrary to reason, is a vital constituent of reason and hence essential for good decision‐making. Second, we examine a number of computational models that integrate emotion and reason into group decision‐making. Although these models possess a number of weaknesses, we think that further developments are both possible and likely, and point to some areas that later models will need to address.
