The erotetic theory of reasoning: bridges between formal semantics and the psychology of deductive inference*
TL;DR: The erotetic theory of reasoning as discussed by the authors is based on the idea that the relationship between questions and answers is central to both our successes and failures of reasoning, and it combines two classes of ideas from the philosophy of language and linguistics: the first one is the notion that we interpret premises as strong answers to questions, represented in the form of mental models that we bring to the task of interpretation (Koralus, 2012).

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that ABMs of human behaviour can contribute significantly to human dimensions of fisheries in three areas: (a) understanding interactions between multiple management institutions; (b) incorporating cognitive and behavioural sciences into fisheries science and practice; and (c) understanding and projecting the social consequences of management institutions.
Analytic Versus Computational Cognitive Models: Agent-Based Modeling as a Tool in Cognitive Sciences:
TL;DR: It is shown that agent-based models can be used to explore how cognitive models scale in social networks to calibrate model parameters, to validate model predictions, and to engender model development.

Attention, consciousness, and the semantics of questions
TL;DR: A novel theory of the functional role of attention is presented that has the resources for a systematic representationalist account of these phenomena and provides a new account of the phenomenology of salience.
From reactive towards anticipatory fishing agents
TL;DR: This paper implements the erotetic decision-making model in the POSEIDON fisheries model and provides a principled proof that reasons-based cognitive structures allow for anticipatory behavioural adaptation rather than reactive behavioural adaptation.
