  1. Analogical reasoning during hypothesis generation: the effects of object and domain similarities on access and transfer.Leandro E. Rivas & Máximo Trench - forthcoming - Thinking and Reasoning.
    In two experiments on analogical hypothesis generation, we factorially manipulated the presence of domain and object similarities between a base situation and a target phenomenon, and assessed their effects on the transfer of the source’s explanatory structure before and after an indication to use the base analog as a source for analogical explanations. The absence of any kind of surface similarity led to very low rates of spontaneous transfer. In both experiments, however, either kind of surface similarity sufficed to enhance (...)
