Speaking deductively: Preschoolers' use of If in conversation and in conditional inference
Conversations taped in the homes and preschools of 39 four-year-olds were used to determine whether children and adults spoke the type of if sentence found in conditional syllogisms, whether children made conditional deductions during conversation, and whether adult speech influenced children's use of if in conversation and deduction
Knowing when you don't know: Developmental and situational considerations
Understanding the language of reasoning: Cognitive, linguistic, and developmental influences
Evaluating presuppositions and propositions
Some conjunctions simultaneously convey speakers' presuppositions about the validity of propositions uttered and assertions of particular interclausal relations. Because conveys belief, if + indicative, uncertainty and if + subjunctive, disbelief. While all three conjuctions assert positive entailment, unless , which like if + indicative presupposes uncertainty, asserts negative entailment or denial. The relationship between pragmatic knowledge a…
The pragmatics of subordinating conjunctions: A second look
Some subordinating conjunctions reveal whether speakers believe the propositions the conjunctions connect and how speakers believe propositions are connected. Because and although express belief; if + indicative and unless uncertainty, and if + subjunctive, disbelief. Because, if + indicative and if + subjunctive express a positive entailment relation between clauses while although and unless express negative entailment. To validate this analysis…
Children's comprehension of pragmatic concepts expressed in ‘because’, ‘although’, ‘if’ and ‘unless’
First, third, and fifth graders judged a speaker's belief about entailment and propositional truth in sentences containing five subordinating conjunction-verb combinations: if, because, although, unless combined with indicative verbs, and if with a subjunctive verb. Children were more accurate when a speaker believed the truth of his utterance ( because and although ) than when he voiced disbelief ( if + subjunctive) or doubt ( unless and if + in…
