T - Testable - Various studies have shown these two systems are evident using lab settings with high control. This means cause and effect can be measured., E - Empirical support - Biological evidence supports that different types of thinking might be processed in different parts of the brain (McClure et.al, 2004), A - Application - The model helps us understand fast decision making and day-to day decisions. It also helps understand biases in our thinking and decision-making., C - Construct validity - Most research on this model done in a lab so lack of ecological validity of the real effects of the model in real life scenarios. Not taking into account emotions therefore overly simplistic., U -Unbiased - Studies of the dual processing model have been done across many cultures., P - Predicts behaviour - The model allows us to predict scenarios where individuals might make errors in their thinking due to 'system 1'.,
