Effect of hit rate and cognitive style on Bayesian reasoning: evidence from eye movements [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology
While psychological research has established both probability information and cognitive style as key factors in Bayesian reasoning, their interactive effects remain underexplored.

Good Fences Make for Good Neighbors but Bad Science: A Review of What Improves Bayesian Reasoning and Why

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2015
Bayesian reasoning, defined here as the updating of a posterior probability following new information, has historically been problematic for humans. Classic psychology experiments have tested human Bayesian reasoning through the use of word problems and ...

Bayesian reasoning in residents' preliminary diagnoses. [PDF]

open access: yesCogn Res Princ Implic, 2016
Whether and when humans in general, and physicians in particular, use their beliefs about base rates in Bayesian reasoning tasks is a long-standing question. Unfortunately, previous research on whether doctors use their beliefs about the prevalence of diseases in diagnostic judgments has critical limitations.

Designing Visualisations for Bayesian Problems According to Multimedia Principles

open access: yesEducation Sciences, 2022
Questions involving Bayesian Reasoning often arise in events of everyday life, such as assessing the results of a breathalyser test or a medical diagnostic test. Bayesian Reasoning is perceived to be difficult, but visualisations are known to support it.

Beliefs and Bayesian reasoning [PDF]

open access: yesPsychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2016
We examine whether judgments of posterior probabilities in Bayesian reasoning problems are affected by reasoners' beliefs about corresponding real-world probabilities. In an internet-based task, participants were asked to determine the probability that a hypothesis is true (posterior probability, e.g., a person has a disease, given a positive medical ...

Numeracy, frequency, and Bayesian reasoning [PDF]

open access: yesJudgment and Decision Making, 2009
Previous research has demonstrated that Bayesian reasoning performance is improved if uncertainty information is presented as natural frequencies rather than single-event probabilities. A questionnaire study of 342 college students replicated this effect

Bayesian reasoning in science [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1991
Bayesian scientific reasoning has a sound foundation in logic and provides a unified approach to the evaluation of deterministic and statistical theories, unlike its main rivals.

The Effect of Bayesian Reasoning Training on the Results of Clinical Reasoning Tests of Interns [PDF]

open access: yesPizhūhish dar Āmūzish-i ̒ulūm-i Pizishkī, 2022
Introduction: Clinical reasoning includes a range of thinking about clinical medicine at all stages of patient evaluation. Bayesian theory can be used to refute or confirm differential diagnoses in the clinical reasoning process. In this way, by learning

The Logical Essentials of Bayesian Reasoning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
This chapter offers an accessible introduction to the channel-based approach to Bayesian probability theory. This framework rests on algebraic and logical foundations, inspired by the methodologies of programming language semantics. It offers a uniform, structured and expressive language for describing Bayesian phenomena in terms of familiar ...
