TEMPORALIDAD Y RELACIONES DE INCLUSIóN: EL PROCESAMIENTO DE LA REGLA CONDICIONAL EN LA TAREA DE SELECCIóN Y SUS DIFICULTADESDOI: 10.4067/S0718-22012011000100016 Keywords: inference, mental representations, subset, temporality. Abstract: some versions of peter wason’s four-cards selection task are executed correctly by experimental subjects, but other versions are not. in this paper, i try to explain this problem and i argue that subjects select logically valid cards when the versions have (i) a temporal rule or (ii) a rule with a term that can be understood as subset of the other term. thus, i hold problems of wason’s task are not logical inference problems, but problems about construction of mental representations process.
