Reasoning about conditional sentences: Development of understanding of cues to quantification
David P. O'Brien,Martin D. S. Braine,Jeffrey W. Connell,Ira A. Noveck,Shalom M. Fisch,Elizabeth Fun +5 more
TL;DR: It is argued that such erroneous evaluations of universally quantified conditionals have more to do with the quantificational aspect than the conditional aspect of the problems; children interpret the indefinite article as existential, although they resist the error when the cue to universal quantification is completely clear.
Journal ArticleDOI
What MEG can reveal about inference making: the case of if...then sentences.
Mathilde Bonnefond,Mathilde Bonnefond,Ira A. Noveck,Sylvain Baillet,Sylvain Baillet,Anne Cheylus,Claude Delpuech,Olivier F. Bertrand,Pierre Fourneret,Jean-Baptiste Van der Henst +9 more
TL;DR: The present results show that conditional reasoning involves several successive cognitive processes, each of which engages a distinct cerebral network over the course of inference making, and as soon as a conditional sentence is processed.
Journal ArticleDOI
How Pragmatic Interpretations Arise from Conditionals: Profiling the Affirmation of the Consequent Argument with Reaction Time and EEG Measures.
Mathilde Bonnefond,Mathilde Bonnefond,Jean-Baptiste Van der Henst,Marion Gougain,Suzanne Robic,Matthew D. Olsen,Oshri Weiss,Ira A. Noveck,Ira A. Noveck +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present results from two experiments, one using self-paced measures and the other electroencephalography (EEG), while comparing participants' evaluations of MP and AC arguments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Editorial: The Reasoning Brain: The Interplay between Cognitive Neuroscience and Theories of Reasoning
TL;DR: The extent to which neuroimaging and brain-lesion studies have informed cognitive theories of reasoning is explored, which includes a selection of 20 empirical and theoretical papers from 69 authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
The interpretation of classically quantified sentences: a set-theoretic approach
TL;DR: A set-theoretic model of the mental representation of classically quantified sentences shows that although these sentences are known to have a diagrammatic expression that constitutes a semantic representation, these concepts can also be expressed syntactically in the form of algebraic formulas.
