Wason Selection Task | | Open ZAP | | | Description | | Duration | | 25 minutes | | Summary | |
In this ZAP, the central idea is that you can get to know more about the way people reason by asking them to solve tasks in which many inevitable mistakes will be made. One such task is the Wason Selection Task, which is presented here in a few variations. By solving these tasks, you will learn that people make standard reasoning errors (e.g. confirmation bias) and do not always reason according to the rules of logic.
