Coordination Project of the Priority Program "New Frameworks of Rationality"

优先项目“理性的新框架”（SPP 1516）的目标是克服心理学家和哲学家（以及其他学科，如人工智能）之间长期缺乏合作的问题，以发展人类理性的新理论框架。为了达到这一目标，SPP试图回答超越20世纪理性研究局限的新问题。SPP将首先探索新的理性规范理论对人类思维和决策建模的有用性，其次，心理学中新的实证发现对理性规范理论发展的贡献。为了促进参与学科之间的跨学科对话，SPP将整合一些工具。第一个工具是创建跨学科的主题研究集群。SPP计划设立以下三个研究集群：•条件推理、反事实推理和因果推理•概率推理、归纳推理和信念修正•决策和实践推理这三个集群已经为SPP提案定义，但很明显，最终的集群取决于最终被SPP接受的研究项目。促进SPP跨学科性的第二个重要工具是协调项目，我们在此申请。协调项目将协调和支持SPP不同学科之间的跨学科合作，并将与协调员一起负责项目的管理。协调项目的最重要任务将是促进特别方案内部概念上的一致性和合作，提高国家和国际知名度，促进青年研究人员，平等机会和性别平等，以及公共关系和与公众沟通的问题。该协调项目还将特别关注知识的转移，以造福社会。

The goal of the priority program ―New Frameworks of Rationality‖ (SPP 1516) is to overcome the long lasting lack of collaboration between psychologists and philosophers (and other disciplines, such as AI) in order to develop a new theoretical framework of human rationality. To reach this goal, the SPP seeks to answer new questions that go beyond the limitations of 20th century research on rationality. The SPP will explore, first, the usefulness of new normative theories of rationality for modeling human thinking and decision making, and, second, the contribution that new empirical findings in psychology can make to the development of normative theories of rationality. To foster such an interdisciplinary discourse between the participating disciplines, a number of instruments will be integrated into the SPP. The first instrument is to create interdisciplinary thematically focused research clusters. In the SPP the following three research clusters are planned: • Conditional, counterfactual, and causal reasoning • Probabilistic reasoning, inductive reasoning, and belief revision • Decision Making and Practical Reasoning The three clusters were already defined for the SPP-proposal, but it is clear that the final clustering depends on the research projects that are finally accepted for the SPP. A second important instrument to foster the interdisciplinarity of the SPP is a coordination project, for which we hereby apply. The coordination project will coordinate and support the interdisciplinary collaboration between the different disciplines in the SPP and will – together with the coordinator – be responsible for the management of the program. The most important tasks for the coordination project will be the facilitation of conceptual coherence and cooperation within the SPP, the promotion of national and international visibility, the promotion of young researchers, equal opportunities, and gender-equality, and issues of public rela-tions and the communication with the public. The coordination project will also pay special attention to the transfer of knowledge to benefit the society.
