Abstract

The Cognitive Reflection Test or CRT is an instrument designed to distinguish the intuitive thinking processing from the analytical one. Gender has a significant impact on CRT scores. On average, low CRT scores are common. Although the CRT score typically employed is the sum of correct responses, some recent researchers have proposed new ways of scoring CRT responses by differentiating intuitive responses from intuitive incorrect responses. These results provide evidence that this way of scoring gives more details on the intuitive and reflective thinkers and the type of errors they make.
