Judgment Aggregation in Non-classical Logics

This work contributes to the theory of judgment aggregation by discussing a number of significant non-classical logics. After adapting the standard framework of judgment aggregation to cope with non-classical logics, we discuss in particular results for the case of Intuitionistic Logic, the Lambek calculus, Linear Logic and Relevant Logics. The motivation for studying judgment aggregation in no...

Non-linear Multiple-Cue Judgment Tasks

In two experiments we examined which cognitive processes people use in a non-linear multiple cue judgment task, proposing that people are not able to use explicit cue abstraction when judging objects with a non-linear structure between the cues of the objects and the criterion and therefore they are forced to use exemplar-based processes. Consistent with the results reveal strong exemplar effec...

Neuropsychology of Aesthetic Judgment of Ambiguous and Non-Ambiguous Artworks

Several affective and cognitive processes have been found to be pivotal in affecting aesthetic experience of artworks and both neuropsychological as well as psychiatric symptoms have been found to affect artistic production. However, there is a paucity of studies directly investigating effects of brain lesions on aesthetic judgment. Here, we assessed the effects of unilateral brain damage on ae...

Judgment

The concept of a judgment as a logical action which introduces new information into a deductive system is examined. This leads to a way of mathematically representing implication which is distinct from the familiar material implication, according to which “If A then B” is considered to be equivalent to “B or not-A”. This leads, in turn, to a resolution of the paradox of the raven.
