Transitive Inference and Commonly Coded Stimuli
… would be treated differently when used in a transitive inference (TI) task than stimuli not commonly coded. A TI task was used in which stimuli were presented to pigeons as pairs (A+B-, B+C-, C+D-, D+E-), and a single pair of stimuli was presented as a test (BD). Pigeons were assigned to four …

Transitive inference in healthy humans and implications for schizophrenia
Transitive inference (TI) refers to inferences on relations between items based on other known relations of those items. Using a paradigm where participants first learn a series of four overlapping pairs that constitute the ordered sequence A>B>C>D>E and are then tested on the novel TI pair BD and …

… the initial input; (4) establishing a transitive inference mechanism based upon previous responses; (5) generating a logical combination of relationships based on previous responses; (6) storing the relationship for each pair of activities in a relation matrix; and (7) outputting the …

Individual differences and strategies for human reasoning
… and abstract and concrete strategies for transitive inference (the latter having originally been identified by Egan and Grimes- Farrow, 1982). Experiments 1-3 also showed that inter-strategic differences in accuracy are generally not observed, hence, reasoners present an outward appearance …

Mechanisms of hippocampal relational memory binding
… could not create face-face bindings, or perform transitive inference, or create novel bindings. In essence, the hippocampal component was performing the same type of category learning as the two cortical components, but it was learning highly specific, cross-domain categories. The limits of the …
