ABSTRACTS

Martín Martínez Villar: “Explosion and implosion. A tentative inventory”

As it is well known, non-explosive logics like LP have dual “non-implosive” logics like K3. From a purely theoretical perspective, the merits and faults of one logic transpose to the other in dual form, and this symmetry seems to show that there’s no possible preference of one over the other. But perhaps there is a factual preference of naïve speakers (speakers without specific training in logic) for one over the other. In this talk we present the plot of an inventory designed to measure naïve speaker’s preferences about explosion and “implosion” (excluded middle). We also present the results of pilot experiences with students in Navarra.

This is a joint work with Pablo Cobreros.

This Workshop aims to analyze the interrelations between substructural logics and reasoning, with a particular focus on recent experimental results in the area.
