The ability to perform relational proposition-based reasoning was assessed in younger and older adults using the transitive inference task in which subjects learned a series of premise pairs (A>B, B>C, C>D, D>E, E>F) and were asked to make inference ...

30 Aug 2008 Previous research (e.g., S. A. Gelman & E. M. Markman, 1986; A. Gopnik & D. M. Sobel, 2000) suggests that children can use category labels to make inductive inferences about nonobvious causal properties of objects. However, such inductive ...

Deductive rationality in validating and testing conditional inferences.
30 Aug 2008 We asked people to validate conditional inferences (e.g., "A, therefore C" with "if A then C"). People are more likely to look for falsifications ("A and not-C") versus confirmations ("A and C") given a forced choice. Second, falsification rates are ...

Transposed conditionals, shrinkage, and direct and indirect unbiasedness.
30 Aug 2008 Unbiasedness as conventionally understood is not a necessary property of good inferences. Such unbiasedness is "direct"--it guarantees that, on average, an estimate equals the thing it is estimating (the parameter). Strange as it may seem, this does ...

The conjunction fallacy and the many meanings of and.
21 Aug 2008 According to the conjunction rule, the probability of A and B cannot exceed the probability of either single event. This rule reads and in terms of the logical operator wedge, interpreting A and B as an intersection of two events. As linguists have ...

20 Aug 2008 The present study examined the neural substrate of two classes of quantifiers: numerical quantifiers like "at least three" which require magnitude processing, and logical quantifiers like "some" which can be understood using a simple form of ...

17 Aug 2008 This paper draws on the work of Paley and Duncan et al in order to extend and engender debate regarding the use of Concept Analysis frameworks. Despite the apparent plethora of Concept Analysis frameworks used in nursing studies we found that over ...

30 Jul 2008 The idea of the infinite has its origins in the very beginnings of western philosophy and was developed significantly by modern philosophers such as Galileo and Leibniz. Freud discovered the Unconscious which does not respect the laws of classical ...

A new method for the re-implementation of threshold logic functions with cellular neural networks.
30 Jul 2008 A new strategy is presented for the implementation of threshold logic functions with binary-output Cellular Neural Networks (CNNs). The objective is to optimize the CNNs weights to develop a robust implementation. Hence, the concept of generative ...
