In a study on the relationship between working memory capacity and reasoning ability, for instance, Kyllonen and Christal (1990) correlated a number of working memory tests with reasoning tests and knowledge tests.
This kind of domain theories provides us with various reasoning capabilities, for instance planning [25].
We can't begin to calculate what will happen in a game of chance such as the lottery because the best tool we have to work with is probability theory, a strangely counter-intuitive form of reasoning that tells us, for instance, that even if a coin has come up heads nine times in a row, there is still a 50 50 chance that it will come up heads the very next time we flip it.
Take, for instance, reasoning on the basis of normality or typicality assumptions.
Tackling additional maintenance factors (sleep problems, for instance, or reasoning biases) is likely to be a productive approach – and one that we're currently piloting.
Moreover, skills gained during the PhD (for instance, logical reasoning and problem-based learning) are advantageous on the wards.
We present asymptotically faster algorithms based on enumeration techniques and we show that these algorithms are applicable to well-studied problems in, for instance, temporal reasoning.
For instance, teleological reasoning is the tendency to view natural phenomena as purposeful or directed towards a goal (e.g., Kelemen 2012).
It is sometimes argued that this is so in general "co-ordination problems" and in situations in which individual reasoning might be self-defeating, for instance, in prisoner's-dilemmas.
(How well did each "write arguments to support claims in an analysis of substantive topics or texts, using valid reasoning and relevant and sufficient evidence," for instance?)
