This collection brings together a set of specially commissioned
chapters from leading international researchers in the psychology
of reasoning. Its purpose is to explore the historical,
philosophical and theoretical implications of the development of
this field. Taking the unusual approach of engaging not only with
empirical data but also with the ideas and concepts underpinning
the psychology of reasoning, this volume has important implications
both for psychologists and other students of cognition, including
philosophers. Sub-fields covered include mental logic, mental
models, rational analysis, social judgement theory, game theory and
evolutionary theory. There are also specific chapters dedicated to
the history of syllogistic reasoning, the psychology of reasoning
as it operates in scientific theory and practice, Brunswickian
approaches to reasoning and task environments, and the implications
of Popper's philosophy for models of behaviour testing. This
cross-disciplinary dialogue and the range of material covered makes
this an invaluable reference for students and researchers into the
psychology and philosophy of reasoning.
