Teleological language or teleological thinking
The endorsement of teleological statements about natural phenomena - such as "the Earth has an ozone layer in order to protect it from UV light" - is often interpreted as evidence for 'promiscuous teleology': an intuitive tendency to view nature as agentive or intentional. We argue instead that teleological statements are semantically ambiguous and propose a framework distinguishing three interpretive levels: attribution of a relation, attributio…
Children's judgements of gambles
Violations of utility are often attributed to people's differential reactions to risk versus certainty or uncertainty, or more generally to the way that people perceive outcomes and consequences. However, a core feature of utility is additivity, and violations may also occur because of averaging effects. Averaging is pervasive in intuitive riskless judgement throughout many domains, as shown with Anderson's Information Integration approach. The p…

Children's judgments of expected value
Expected value judgments of 5-, 6-, 8-, and 10-year-olds were studied by using an information integration approach. Children saw roulette-type games with prizes of crayons. They made judgments on a continuous scale of how happy a puppet playing the game would be. In one task, probability and value of a single winning outcome were varied factorially. All ages took both cues into account. Young children used an additive integration rule, whereas ch…
