Category-Based Induction
An argument is categorical if its premises and conclusion are of the form All members ofC have property F, where C is a natural category like FALCON or BIRD, and P remains the same across premises and conclusion. An example is Grizzly bears love onions. Therefore, all bears love onions. Such an argument is psychologically strong to the extent that belief in its premises engenders belief in its ...
متن کاملCategory coherence and category-based property induction.
One important property of human object categories is that they define the sets of exemplars to which newly observed properties are generalized. We manipulated the causal knowledge associated with novel categories and assessed the resulting strength of property inductions. We found that the theoretical coherence afforded to a category by inter-feature causal relationships strengthened inductive ...
متن کاملExpertise and Category-Based Induction 1 Running Head: EXPERTISE AND CATEGORY-BASED INDUCTION Expertise and Category-Based Induction
This paper examines inductive reasoning among experts in a domain. Three types of tree experts (landscapers, taxonomists, and parks maintenance personnel) completed three reasoning tasks. In Experiment 1, participants inferred which of two novel diseases would affect “more other kinds of trees” and provided justifications for their choices. Experiment 2 used modified instructions, asking which ...

متن کاملCategory vs. Object Knowledge in Category-based Induction.
In one form of category-based induction, people make predictions about unknown properties of objects. There is a tension between predictions made based on the object's specific features (e.g., objects above a certain size tend not to fly) and those made by reference to category-level knowledge (e.g., birds fly). Seven experiments with artificial categories investigated these two sources of indu...
