Maybe there is a simple thing, which rational people can’t do—always get wrong.
Some not very good examples could be:
Skipping with closed eyes.
Telling a lie to a stranger without it being discovered
Saying—“Ooops, I’ m wrong,” quickly enough
Going to church and sitting thru’ a whole sermon without getting very very upset
Multi-tasking
Irony
Understanding metaphors metaphorically.......
Yeah… I can’t think of any good actual examples either, but maybe we should be trying to falsify rationality, rather than verify it.
I don’t know if any of those particular suggestions would work, but the general idea is interesting, no one else suggested testing a negative correlate of rationality I think.
Huh? Those are mostly independent of rationality.
