Can’t Miss, But Vanished Without a Trace
Philip G. Zimbardo describes his most underappreciated work: a paper titled “Discontinuity Theory: Cognitive and Social Searches for Rationality and Normality—May Lead to Madness.” Published in Advances in Experimental Social Psychology in 1999, Zimbardo's research focuses on discontinuity theory and its assumptions about self-processes, cognitive searches for rationality, situationally centered social searches for normality, and the association between particular kinds of explanatory biases and specific different emerging pathologies such as phobias and paranoia. Zimbardo reflects on the reasons why his paper was an abysmal failure.
