Is it about "pink" or about "girls"? The inherence heuristic across social and nonsocial domains

Katherine D Kinzler et al. Behav Brain Sci. 2014 Oct.

Abstract

The inherence heuristic provides an intriguing and novel explanation for early thought in a variety of domains. Exploring similarities and differences in inherent reasoning across social and nonsocial domains can help us understand the role that inherent thinking plays in the development of human reasoning and the process by which more elaborate essentialist reasoning develops.
