Talk:Daniel Kahneman
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Comment from subpage
The link to "hedonic psychology" goes to "psychological egoism." This is missleading and incorrect. Someone probably mistakenly believed that the word "hedonic" in hedonic psychology refers to "hedonism" and thus to a psychology of selfish hedonism. Hedonic Psychology is actually a field of psychology that attempts to analyze and measure what brings people happiness/welfare, etc. and need not be related to egoist motives. It is basically an attempt to update utilitarian/economic ethics/welfare theory in light of modern empirical techniques, including various survey techniques. If I had the time and the expertise I would create a hedonic psychology page. But until someone creates such a page, or another more suitable page is found, this link should be removed. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.192.2.49 (talk • contribs) .
