Funded Activity Summary

The development of causal induction. An ability to reason inductively is an essential prerequisite for effective learning and decision-making. Inductive thinking is also closely related to creativity and innovation. By acquiring a better understanding of how such reasoning develops we will contribute to the enhancement of techniques that help children to learn and refine inductive reasoning skills, and will provide a foundation for the development of programs to assist children who have particular problems in inductive reasoning and generalisation (i.e. those with autism or an intellectual disability).
