The world looks small when you only look through a telescope: The need for a broad and developmental study of reasoning
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 29 March 2011
Abstract
If the target article represents the summary findings of the field, reasoning research is deeply flawed. The vision is too narrow and seems to fall into biological determinism. Humans use reasoning in effective ways apparently not studied by researchers, such as reasoning for action. Moreover, as the brain develops through adulthood and from experience so do reasoning capabilities.
