How many processes underlie category-based induction? Effects of conclusion specificity and cognitive ability (2007)
Journal Article
Feeney, A. (2007). How many processes underlie category-based induction? Effects of conclusion specificity and cognitive ability. Memory and Cognition, 35(7), 1830-1839

Two studies investigated participants' sensitivity to the amount and diversity of the evidence when reasoning inductively about categories. Both showed that participants are more sensitive to characteristics of the evidence for arguments with general... Read More about How many processes underlie category-based induction?

Relations between premise similarity and inductive strength (2005)
Journal Article
Heit, E., & Feeney, A. (2005). Relations between premise similarity and inductive strength. Psychonomic Bulletin and Review, 12(2), 340-344

According to the diversity principle, diverse evidence is strong evidence. There has been considerable evidence that people respect this principle in inductive reasoning. However, exceptions may be particularly informative. Medin, Coley, Storms, and... Read More about Relations between premise similarity and inductive strength.

In this paper we report on our attempts to fit the optimal data selection (ODS) model (Oaksford & Chater, 1994; Oaksford, Chater, & Larkin, 2000) to the selection task data reported in Feeney and Handley (2000) and Handley, Feeney, and Harper (2002)....

Alternative antecedents, probabilities, and the suppression of fallacies in Wason's selection task (2002)
Journal Article

Three experiments examined the influence of a second rule on the pattern of card selections on Wason's selection task. In Experiment 1 participants received a version of the task with a single test rule or one of two versions of the task with the sam...
