Speaking deductively: Preschoolers' use of If in conversation and in conditional inference.

Abstract

Conversations taped in the homes and preschools of 39 four-year-olds were used to determine whether children and adults spoke the type of if sentence found in conditional syllogisms, whether children made conditional deductions during conversation, and whether adult speech influenced children's use of if in conversation and deduction.
