Here I say, "You cannot randomly draw three blue balls in a row out of a box of mostly yellow balls." Of course you *could* technically pull out three blue balls in a row randomly but it's very unlikely.

Infants consider both the sample and the sampling process in inductive generalization

Le sorprendenti menti logiche dei bambini

Come fanno i bambini ad imparare così velocemente da così pochi dati? In un discorso divertente, pieno di esperimenti, la scienziata cognitiva Laura Schulz ci mostra come i nostri piccoli, ben prima di poter parlare, prendano decisioni con un senso della logica sorprendentemente forte. 

Even before they can talk, babies draw surprisingly accurate conclusions from just a handful of experiences. A 15-month-old can tell whether evidence is random or cherry-picked, changing their expectations based on subtle cues. Experiments reveal that infants generalize, reason about causes, and adapt their actions with an intuitive logic that rivals scientific thinking. This remarkable ability underpins not only early learning but the very foundation of human culture and creativity.
