Humans often appear irrational when you look at results of decision-making research. What explanation for this tendency is given by evolutionary theorists?

◦ Problems in the laboratory are different from the problems we evolved to solve.
◦ Lab studies use heuristics and algorithms rather than deductive reasoning.
◦ Most research compares humans to other animals, and other animals are more instinctive in their decision-making processes.
◦ Most decision-making research involves numerical problems, something that our ancestors did not face.
