Premise Interpretation in Conditional Reasoning
2 Premise Interpretation in Conditional Reasoning Conditional sentences are pervasive in human communication. Many arguments contain conditional premises or a conditional conclusion. The expression conditional reasoning could appropriately be applied to such arguments. However, there is a tradition in psychological research, which will be followed here, to restrict the use of this expression to...
متن کاملCausal Conditional Reasoning and Conditional Likelihood
We hypothesized that causal conditional reasoning reflects judgment of the conditional likelihood of causes and effects based on a probabilistic causal model of the scenario being judged. Although this proposal has much in common with Cummins’ (1995) theory based on the number of disabling conditions and alternative causes, it takes more variables into account and therefore makes some differing...
متن کاملCausal Structure in Conditional Reasoning
Causal reasoning has been shown to underlie many aspects of everyday judgment and decision-making. We explore the role of causal structure in conditional reasoning, hypothesizing that people often interpret conditional statements as assertions about causal structure. We argue that responses on the Wason selection task reflect the selection of evidence expected to maximally reduce uncertainty ov...
متن کاملConditional probabilistic reasoning without conditional logic
Imaging is a class of non-Bayesian methods for the revision of probability density functions originally proposed as a semantics for conditional logic. Two of these revision functions, Standard Imaging and General Imaging, have successfully been applied to modelling information retrieval (IR). Due to the problematic nature of a“direct” implementation of Imaging revision functions, we propose the...
متن کاملConditional Relational Reasoning
Conditional reasoning reasoning with ”if” is very common in everyday life. Consequently, all reasoning theories provide explanations for typical logical errors in conditional reasoning. The combination of conditional reasoning with spatial relational reasoning provides a new test-bed for these theories. Take, for instance, the two assertions ”If the church is to the left of the cinema then the ...
