RESUMO
A falácia da conjunção ocorre quando a conjunção de dois eventos é julgada como mais provável de ocorrer do que seus eventos constituintes. Esse fenômeno tem sido investigado principalmente por psicólogos cognitivistas, mas, recentemente, tem atraído o interesse de alguns analistas do comportamento. O presente trabalho consiste em um resumo da literatura sobre falácia, no qual são enfatizadas as estratégias metodológicas utilizadas e os resultados empíricos obtidos. Dentre as variáveis controladoras analisadas, são destacadas a representatividade, o uso inadequado de regras probabilísticas, as experiências passadas com os eventos constituintes e compostos, o treino estatístico e os aspectos verbais e contextuais.
ABSTRACT
The conjunction fallacy occurs when the conjunction of two events is judged as more probable to occur than its constituent events. This phenomenon has been investigated mainly by cognitive psychologists but, recently, it has called the attention of some behavior analysts. The present study summarizes the literature on fallacy, emphasizing the methodological strategies used and the empirical results attained. Among the control variables analyzed, some special attention is given to the representativeness, the inadequate use of probabilistic rules, the previous experiences with constituent and compound events, the statistical training, and verbal and contextual aspects.
