Are Causal Structure and Intervention Judgments Inextricably Linked? A Developmental Study
The application of the formal framework of causal Bayesian Networks to children's causal learning provides the motivation to examine the link between judgments about the causal structure of a system, and the ability to make inferences about interventions on components of the system. Three experiments examined whether children are able to make correct inferences about interventions on different ...
متن کاملSocial Media, Open Science, and Data Science Are Inextricably Linked
Should scientists use social media? Why practice open science? What is data science? Ten years ago, these phrases hardly existed. Now they are ubiquitous. Here I argue that these phenomena are inextricably linked and reflect similar underlying social and technological transformations.
متن کاملCardiopulmonary physiology: why the heart and lungs are inextricably linked.
Because the heart and lungs are confined within the thoracic cavity, understanding their interactions is integral for studying each system. Such interactions include changes in external constraint to the heart, blood volume redistribution (venous return), direct ventricular interaction (DVI), and left ventricular (LV) afterload. During mechanical ventilation, these interactions can be amplified...
متن کاملStructure and strength in causal judgments
Several recent theories have attempted to account for the judgments people make about causal relationships. We argue that questions about causal structure, such as whether or not a causal relationship actually exists, make an important contribution to these judgments. We use graphical models, a formal tool for describing causality developed in computer science, to illustrate that two leading ra...
متن کاملIntentionality, Evaluative Judgments, and Causal Structure
The results from a number of recent studies suggest that ascriptions of intentionality are based on evaluative considerations: specifically, that the likelihood of viewing a person’s actions as intentional is greater when the outcome is bad than good (see Knobe, 2006, 2010). In this research we provide an alternative explanation for these findings, one based on the idea that ascriptions of inte...
