Richard Robb argues that neither explanation accounts for those things that we do for their own sake, and without understanding these sorts of actions, our picture of decision‑making is at best incomplete.

"Mi è simpatico!": è un'espressione che appartiene a tutti e che, pur senza conoscerne appieno il significato, tutti usiamo sin dall'infanzia, associandola a incontri gradevoli e a situazioni positive.
