TLDR
This paper found that participants are more likely to attribute knowledge in familiar Gettier cases when the would-be knowers are performing actions that are negative in some way (e.g. harmful, blameworthy, norm-violating) than when they are performing positive or neutral actions.Abstract:
We report experimental results showing that participants are more likely to attribute knowledge in familiar Gettier cases when the would-be knowers are performing actions that are negative in some way (e.g. harmful, blameworthy, norm-violating) than when they are performing positive or neutral actions. Our experiments bring together important elements from the Gettier case literature in epistemology and the Knobe effect literature in experimental philosophy and reveal new insights into folk patterns of knowledge attribution.read more

TL;DR: The X-Phi Replicability Project (XRP) as mentioned in this paper was formed to estimate the reproducibility of experimental philosophy (osf.io/dvkpr) studies published between 2003 and 2015 and recruited 20 research teams across 8 countries to conduct a high-quality replication of each study in order to compare the results to the original published findings.

Knowledge and luck
TL;DR: It is found that knowledge attributions are highly sensitive to lucky events that change the explanation for why a belief is true, and surprisingly insensitive to luckyEvents that threaten, but ultimately fail to change the reason why a believe is true.

Intentional Action and Side Effects in Ordinary Language
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the conditions under which people claim that a particular behavior was performed "intentionally" and explore the question as to whether people ordinarily say that the side-effects of an agent's behavior are brought about 'intentionally'.

Intentional Action and Side Effects in Ordinary Language
TL;DR: The authors used experimental techniques to investigate people's use of the relevant words and phrases in ordinary language to determine the conditions under which a behavior counts as 'intentional' in the philosophical literature.
