Indicative and Counterfactual Conditionals in the Psychology of Reasoning

Over, David E.; Cruz, Nicole

Abstract

Our objective in this chapter is to introduce the study of indictive and counterfactual conditionals in the psychology of reasoning, and to discuss how psychology can make progress in understanding the relationship between these conditionals in people’s thinking and reasoning. There is a great deal of psychological research on both indicative and counterfactual conditionals, but to a large extent, the two research topics have not been closely connected in the psychology of reasoning.
