Thinking & Reasoning

期刊简介：Thinking & Reasoning is dedicated to the understanding of human thought processes, with particular emphasis on studies on reasoning, decision-making, and problem-solving. Whilst the primary focus is on psychological studies of thinking, contributions are welcome from philosophers, artificial intelligence researchers and other cognitive scientists whose work bears upon the central concerns of the journal. Topics published in the journal fall under the broad umbrella described above and include studies of deductive reasoning, inductive reasoning, judgments of probability and other quantities, conceptual thinking, the neuropsychology of reasoning, and the influence of language and culture on thought. Papers will be accepted for publication on the basis of scientific quality, clarity of exposition and contribution to theoretical understanding of human thinking. Contributions may take any of the following forms: Empirical studies using any methodology appropriate to questions addressed, including experimental or observational methods and utilising either quantitative or qualitative analyses. Studies reporting small effect sizes with moderate sample sizes and modest statistical power should be replicated prior to submission. Empirical adversarial collaboration , which reflects a new model of paper recently introduced by Thinking & Reasoning , in which authors with opposing views on theory or the explanation of phenomena agree to undertake and write up a joint investigation of the subject of their disagreement. Theoretical contributions pertinent to issues in the empirical study of human thought but not reporting new data. Critical reviews of research literatures which synthesise findings reported by different authors and which derive new insights or permit conclusions which enhance understanding of theoretical issues. Critical discussion of papers published in Thinking & Reasoning and short reports or notes on other relevant issues. Peer Review: All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single anonymized and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts . Disclaimer

【译文】思考与推理致力于理解人类思维过程，特别强调对推理、决策和解决问题的研究。虽然主要关注的是思维的心理学研究，但欢迎哲学家、人工智能研究人员和其他认知科学家的贡献，他们的工作与该杂志的核心关注点有关。该杂志发表的主题属于上述广泛范围，包括演绎推理、归纳推理、概率和其他量的判断、概念思维、推理的神经心理学以及语言和文化对思维的影响的研究。论文将根据科学质量、阐述的清晰度以及对人类思维的理论理解的贡献而被接受发表。贡献可以采取以下任何形式： 使用适合所解决问题的任何方法的实证研究，包括实验或观察方法以及利用定量或定性分析。报告小效应、中等样本量和适度统计功效的研究应在提交前进行重复。经验对抗性合作，反映了《思考与推理》最近推出的一种新论文模式，其中对理论或现象解释持相反观点的作者同意对他们分歧的主题进行并撰写联合调查。与人类思想实证研究中的问题相关的理论贡献，但不报告新数据。对研究文献的批判性评论，综合了不同作者报告的研究结果，得出新的见解或得出结论，从而增强对理论问题的理解。对发表在《Thinking & Reasoning》上的论文进行批判性讨论，以及其他相关问题的简短报告或注释。同行评审：所有提交的稿件均需经过编辑的初步评估，如果认为适合进一步考虑，则由独立、匿名的专家审稿人进行同行评审。所有同行评审都是单一匿名的，并且通过 ScholarOne Manuscripts 在线提交。免责声明
