For the learning of multidisciplinary mental models

r/mentalmodels

This is for the purpose of building a repository of mental models as described by Charlie Munger. Models from any field are welcome. The concept is to learn new things that can be applied across various fields, to improve our own methods of analysis.

This is for the purpose of learning multidisciplinary mental models as described by Charlie Munger. Models from any field are welcome. Ideally they are provided along with context, such as from a proponent of them.

More mental models will be added as they are found. Feel free to add your own from outside the realm of business and investing - most posts will focus on those areas, at least initially, as that is where my base of knowledge primarily resides. However, models from any disciplines are encouraged.

Do not post spam or content that is not intellectually stimulating. Do not post general news unless it is useful for the deliberate practice of exercising our models.

Please refrain from popular culture references, also, and make sure that your posts are insightful - explain your opinions and why you hold them, and avoid posting responses that do not adequately address points raised.

Do not argue over semantics.
