==Short Definition==
==Wisdom is ...==


This project has focused on affective forecasting for moral behaviors.  
wisdom includes three components:
# Accurate affective forecasts: correctly predicting one’s emotional reactions following one’s moral decisions.
# Accurate interpersonal affective forecasts: accurately predicting the emotional reactions of others to one’s moral choices. This is an important component of many traditional definitions of wisdom, but has been largely neglected empirically.
# Applying this knowledge: choosing benevolent (over hurtful) actions because they will yield the greatest positive affect both for the self and for others.
