Symbolic psycho-logic: A model of attitudinal cognition
Abstract
When Euler taught logic to the Princess by drawing the overlapping circles and circles within circles, he was also illustrating the well-known fact that human beings have to learn the principles of formal logic. They do not, it is generally agreed, always or even often think logically. So, if behavioral scientists are to study and understand the processes of ordinary, everyday thinking, they must develop new approaches, including the recognition that thinking is colored by emotional attitudes. By using a system based on a definition of cognitive elements and the relations between them, a psychological mathematical model has been constructed for use in the rigorous experimental analysis of attitudinal cognition.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
