How people do relational reasoning? Role of problem complexity and domain familiarity

作者：

Highlights：

• The goal of this paper is to study how people do relational reasoning.

• We present two studies that look at human performance in relational problems.

• Our results present the first evidence toward the role of problem complexity on performance.

• We did not find any evidence suggesting any role of familiarity with spreadsheets.
