Transitive inference task TASK
Unreviewed

Transitive inference is a form of inferential reasoning. For example, if A > B and B > C and C > D and D > E, then it can be concluded without being told than B > D. "greater than (>)" can be replaced with any other (supposedly) transitive relation, such as "better than" or "darker-colored than".

CONDITIONS

Experimental conditions are the subsets of an experiment that define the relevant experimental manipulation.

CONTRASTS

You must specify conditions before you can define contrasts.


In the Cognitive Atlas, we define a contrast as any function over experimental conditions. The simplest contrast is the indicator value for a specific condition; more complex contrasts include linear or nonlinear functions of the indicator across different experimental conditions.

INDICATORS

No indicators have yet been associated.

An indicator is a specific quantitative or qualitative variable that is recorded for analysis. These may include behavioral variables (such as response time, accuracy, or other measures of performance) or physiological variables (including genetics, psychophysiology, or brain imaging data).
