What are some synonyms to Kahneman's System 1 and System 2 then? Because Type 1 and 2 errors seem to be completely equivalent to false and positive negatives. I think Kahneman motivates his decision to introduce the terms System 1 and 2 quite well in his book, and I don't know of any direct counterparts.

Jonathan Haidt proposed a similar system in his book "The Happiness Hypothesis". He called it the automatic and controlled sides. The automatic side/system 1 is also what's being described in the book "The Inner Game of Tennis". I would summarize the two sides as the reflexive and the deliberate sides.

If the title of his book is justified, maybe the fast and slow systems?
