Between a conditional’s antecedent and its consequent: Discourse coherence vs. probabilistic relevance
Reasoning with conditionals is central to everyday life, yet there is long-standing disagreement about the meaning of the conditional. One example is the puzzle of so-called missing-link conditionals such as "if raccoons have no wings, they cannot breathe under water." Their oddity may be taken to show that conditionals require a connection between antecedent ("raccoons have no wings") and cons...
متن کاملAntecedent-Consequent Relationships and Cyclical Patterns between Affective States and Problem Solving Outcomes
We explored the complex interplay between students’ affective states and problem solving outcomes. We conducted a study where 41 students solved 28 analytical reasoning problems from the Law School Admission Test. Participants viewed videos of their interaction history and judged their emotions at theoretically relevant points in the problem solving session (after new problem is displayed, in t...
متن کاملon the relationship between actual vs. perceived difficulties of a text and iranian efl learners reading anxiety
abstract this study examines the relationship between reading anxiety and difficulty of texts as well as the relationship between reading anxiety and students perceived difficulty of the texts. since difficulty is a relative concept, i limited its definition by sticking to the readability formula. we also took students perceived difficulty levels into account. therefore, in the present study, ...

Recently, it has been shown that probabilistic entailment under coherence is weaker than model-theoretic probabilistic entailment. Moreover, probabilistic entailment under coherence is a generalization of default entailment in System P . In this paper, we continue this line of research by presenting probabilistic generalizations of more sophisticated notions of classical default entailment that...
متن کاملAntecedent versus consequent events as predictors of problem behavior.
Comparisons of results from descriptive and functional analyses of problem behavior generally have shown poor correspondence. Most descriptive analyses have focused on relations between consequent events and behavior, and it has been noted that attention is a common consequence for problem behavior even though it may not be a functional reinforcer. Because attention may be prescribed simply as ...
