    "abstract": "Many theories of reasoning and many experiments presupposethat human ability is stable over time, and so people usuallydraw the same conclusion from the same premises. The as-sumption has hitherto had little or no empirical investigation.We therefore analyzed a study in which 20 participants drewtheir own conclusions to the 64 sorts of syllogisms on twooccasions separated by roughly a week. We report the na-ture of the changes in the participants’ conclusions includingtheir spontaneous improvement in logical accuracy, and use amodel-based program, mReasoner, to explain the results.",
