Our aim in this paper is to explore two possible directions of interaction between normative folk psychology and decision theory. In one direction, folk psychology plays a regulative role that constrains practical decision-making. In the other direction, decision theory provides novel tools and norms that shape folk psychology. We argue that these interactions could lead to the emergence of an iterative “decision theoretic spiral," where folk psychology influences decision-making, decision-making is studied by decision theory, and decision theory influences folk psychology. Understanding these interactions is important both for the theoretical study of social cognition and decision theory, and also for thinking about how to implement practical interventions into real-world decision-making.

规范的民间心理学和决策理论

我们在本文中的目的是探索规范民间心理学和决策理论之间相互作用的两个可能方向。在一个方向上，民间心理学起着限制实际决策的调节作用。另一方面，决策理论提供了塑造民间心理学的新工具和规范。我们认为，这些相互作用可能导致迭代的“决策理论螺旋”的出现，其中民间心理学影响决策，决策由决策理论研究，决策理论影响民间心理学。理解这些相互作用对双方都很重要社会认知和决策理论的理论研究，以及思考如何在现实世界的决策中实施实际干预。
