On abstract goals’ perverse effects on proxies: The dynamics of unattainability

Evidence

Behav Brain Sci. 2024 May 13;47:e72. doi: 10.1017/S0140525X23002911.

ABSTRACT

Proxies should not be classified as failures or successes because, in most cases, they are impossible translations of abstract, polysemous goals to supposedly univocal concrete measures. The “success” or “failure” of a proxy does not depend on its actual accuracy as a valid indicator of goal attainment, but on a social system’s willingness to maintain an illusion of its accomplishment.
