I've not read Thinking, fast and slow (Kahneman, 2011); however, reviews report that the book itself lists a wide range of experiments.  It was also evident from a broader search that the book has been heavily criticised for relying on experiments with very low statistical power.  See articles: http://retractionwatch.com/2017/02/20/placed-much-faith-underpowered-studies-nobel-prize-winner-admits-mistakes/ and https://replicationindex.com/2017/02/02/reconstruction-of-a-train-wreck-how-priming-research-went-of-the-rails/

Can you add more background information? What is System 1 thinking, why is it important and what exactly are you seeking for answers?

@AliceD System 1 thinking, coined by Dan Kahneman, one of the two models of thought, which is fast and unconscious. I'm trying to find literature showing that system one thinking is developed through evolution.

@TonyMobbs That's the main source I'm reading. I'm looking for other scholars to see their perspectives. Any advice? Thanks!!
