{"pk":25903,"title":"Can priming intuitions about the logic of sets promote logical evaluations of\nconjunctive probability judgments?","subtitle":null,"abstract":"Building upon the finding that people can assess the logicality of conjunctive probability statements intuitively\n(Vallee-Tourangeau & Faure-Bloom, 2015), we examine whether increasing the salience of people’s implicit knowledge about\nthe logic of sets can impact the influence of logical considerations on probability judgments. We compared the rate of heuristic\nresponding in a control group with that observed in two experimental groups where participants were either explicitly or\nimplicitly primed to reflect on the logic of sets inclusions prior to completing a conjunction probability task. Explicit priming\ninvolved asking them to rate a series of statements such as ‘I am more likely to meet a bank teller than a bank teller who is also\na feminist.’ Implicit priming involved experiencing a series of events with the co-occurring presence and absence of a target\ncharacteristic (e.g., Feminist) and an alternative characteristic (e.g., Bank Teller) using a computer-based dynamic learning task","language":"eng","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[],"section":"Member Abstracts","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/6j5023xh","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Jenny","middle_name":"","last_name":"Faure-Bloom","name_suffix":"","institution":"Kingston University London","department":""},{"first_name":"Gaelle","middle_name":"","last_name":"Vallee-Tourangeau","name_suffix":"","institution":"Kingston University London","department":""},{"first_name":"Frederic","middle_name":"","last_name":"Vallee-Tourangeau","name_suffix":"","institution":"Kingston University London","department":""}],"date_submitted":null,"date_accepted":null,"date_published":"2015-01-01T21:00:00+03:00","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/25903/galley/15527/download/"}]}
