Making sense of observations of human reasoning calls for the application of insights. Disregard for the interpretative apparatus of logic has led to distortions in the study of human reasoning. Redressing this imbalance reveals logic as an abstract theory of the sensitivity of human reasoning to knowledge, context and content.
Making sense of observations of human reasoning calls for the application of insights from the full range of modern logical concepts and techniques. The empirical cognitive program which emerges emphasises processes of reasoning to an interpretation, alongside processes of reasoning from an interpretation (derivation). Disregard for the interpretative apparatus of logic has led to distortions in the study of human reasoning, especially its evolution. Redressing this imbalance reveals modern logic as an abstract theory of the sensitivity of human reasoning to knowledge, context and content, and suggests an alternative evolutionary approach more firmly rooted in both psychology and biology.
