Causal Reasoning Using Conditional Causal Possibilities to Express Uncertainty of Causalities
This paper addresses an uncertain reasoning based on causal knowledge given by two layered network, where nodes in one layer express possible causes and those in the other are possible results. Uncertainties of the causalities are given by Conditional Causal Possibilities, which are proposed to express uncertainties of causalities we recognize in mind. The conventional Conditional Possibilities...
متن کاملCausal Structure in Conditional Reasoning
Causal reasoning has been shown to underlie many aspects of everyday judgment and decision-making. We explore the role of causal structure in conditional reasoning, hypothesizing that people often interpret conditional statements as assertions about causal structure. We argue that responses on the Wason selection task reflect the selection of evidence expected to maximally reduce uncertainty ov...
متن کاملCausal Conditional Reasoning and Conditional Likelihood
We hypothesized that causal conditional reasoning reflects judgment of the conditional likelihood of causes and effects based on a probabilistic causal model of the scenario being judged. Although this proposal has much in common with Cummins’ (1995) theory based on the number of disabling conditions and alternative causes, it takes more variables into account and therefore makes some differing...
متن کاملRunning Head: Categorization as Causal Reasoning Categorization as Causal Reasoning
A theory of categorization is presented in which knowledge of causal relationships between category features is represented in terms of asymmetric and probabilistic causal mechanisms. According to causal-model theory, objects are classified as category members to the extent they are likely to have been generated or produced by those mechanisms. Two experiments confirmed that participants rated ...
