*** Submission deadline extended to 15-Dec-2018 ***

Human reasoning or the psychology of deduction is well researched in 
cognitive psychology and in cognitive science. There are many findings 
which are based on experimental data about human reasoning tasks. Among 
others,models for the Wason selection task or the suppression task are 
discussed by psychologists and cognitive scientists. However, only few of 
these models are computational and often models are modified when applied 
to a different task.

Automated deduction, on the other hand, mainly focuses on the automated 
proof search in formal, logical calculi. Indeed, there is tremendous 
success during the last decades, and automated deduction systems are used 
in many industrial applications. However, most automated deduction systems 
are not really concerned with human reasoning tasks.

Recently, a coupling of the areas of cognitive science and automated 
reasoning is addressed in several approaches. For example, there is 
increasing interest in modeling human reasoning tasks within automated 
reasoning systems based on answer set programming, deontic logic, 
abductive logic programming, and various other AI approaches.

This special issue of the Künstliche Intelligenz Journal, appearing in 
August 2019, is aiming to foster the synergies between cognitive science 
and automated deduction. The topics of interest for the special issue of 
the Künstliche Intelligenz Journal include, but are not limitedto:

* Limits and differences between automated deduction and human reasoning
* Automated deduction and the psychology of deduction
* Automated deduction and (preferred) mental models
* Common sense reasoning, cognitive science and automated deduction
* Modeling human reasoning tasks using (classical, non-monotonic or defeasible) 
logics
* Modeling human reasoning tasks using automated reasoning systems
* Modeling human reasoning tasks using inductive reasoning systems
* Modeling human reasoning tasks using probabilistic reasoning systems
* Applications
