Topic:
The aim of the workshop is to discuss (epistemic) norms of reasoning from different perspectives. The
purpose is to bring together traditional and formal epistemologists and cognitive scientists who focus
on questions such as: To what extent are norms of reasoning normative? What are epistemic norms?
Which kind of norms of reasoning (e.g. logical, probabilistic, evidentialist) hold? How should one
justify such norms? How can norms guide an agent?s reasoning in science and everyday life? What is
the significance of such norms for psychological investigations of human reasoning? Are psychological
investigations of human reasoning relevant for philosophical debates on norms of reasoning?
