summaryThe new paradigm in the psychology of reasoning is a reflection of the great impact Bayesian approaches are having in cognitive psychology and cognitive science generally. The new developments are rightly called a paradigm shift, since they bring with them a new logic as the standard of correct reasoning. This standard itself rests on the even more fundamental notion of coherence, which is also the standard for rational probability judgment. Thus the paradigm shift opens up the possibility of integrating the fields of the psychology of reasoning and of judgment and decision making.
