psychology

Speaker-aware (AssemblyAI; named: Ted Seides, Josh Steiner; A/C/E unresolved labels treated as source-attributed). Capital Allocators Ep. 502 — Ted Seides interviews Josh Steiner (SSW Partners co-founder, Yale IC member, former US Treasury Chief of Staff) on mistakes across investing levels. First substantive source ingested into this thread; produces the decision-making-psychology seed material.

• Created josh-steiner (person, 4 quotes across approach-avoidance-investment-framework and investment-mistake-taxonomy): coined the approach-avoidance reframe as an operational substitution for risks-vs-attractions framing; surfaces the diary-subpoena Treasury mistake as a structurally interesting fifth-category (impressionistic-personal-records-under-evidentiary-frame) of decision-making error.
• Created ted-seides (person, 1 quote): Capital Allocators host; brackets the episode framing.
• Created approach-avoidance-investment-framework (concept): replaces standard risks-vs-attractions framing with "what do you have to believe to be true in order to be attracted to this?" — converts an affect-balance into a falsifiable hypothesis. Cross-link to behavioral-economics literature (Lewin field theory, Miller approach-avoidance conflict).
• Created investment-mistake-taxonomy (concept): four-level taxonomy (deal, business-management, people-management, IC-service) with different feedback latencies and different cognitive failure modes. Implication: mistake-tracking systems that don't separate levels over-learn from deals and under-learn from the slower-feedback categories.
• No causal-chain mechanism page created — Steiner's contributions are framings and taxonomies, not multi-step causal arguments with falsifiable empirical links. The approach-avoidance and taxonomy concepts are the right home for this material.
• A/C/E speaker labels were heuristic-fallback (AssemblyAI returned them as unresolved); attributed claims are limited to Ted Seides and Josh Steiner. The unnamed labels appear in the source body but no quotes are attributed to entity pages from them.

• Scope: catch-all for psychology broadly (behavioral, cognitive, clinical, social, developmental, evolutionary), preferring evidence-based findings over pop framing. See SCOPE.md for details.
