Add to ORKGEvans, Barston and Pollard, (1983) found that on the syllogistic evaluation task participants tended to endorse believable conclusions as being valid but reject unbelievable conclusions as invalid. A phenomenon known as "Belief Bias". Additionally, they collected verbal protocols from participants and established that this influence of belief was primarily associated with initial reference to the conclusions of these syllogistic arguments. In contrast, better logical reasoning was associated with initial reference to the premises. This experiment was designed to try to direct participants' anention to either the conclusion or the premises of a syllogistic argument with the intention of manipulating participants' logical reasoning ability an...
