@B100J Okay, the puzzle is logically correct. The explanation given by @PhilosophyExp, isn't. And I didn't select the yellow, only circle.

@PhilosophyExp You should have said "there's no problem even if there's NOT a circle/S on the other side".pic.twitter.com/2pXUvhYpk6

@PhilosophyExp The first two. Point is we don't make sure yellow goes with circle for same reason we don't make sure over 18s drink alcohol. -
@lordpasternack It does say, No prob even if circle is on other side, which is equivalent to, No prob even if drinking alcohol. -
@PhilosophyExp The point should be stressed that it doesn't matter EITHER WAY what results of that query are. It wouldn't break rule. 2/2 -
@lordpasternack@PhilosophyExp ^exactly. It's designed to deceive, no? Seems clear to me if simply explained correctly would be simple. -
@giggs_boson@lordpasternack Well, the Wason selection task has a standard form. Some people do argue that it is linguistically misleading. -
@PhilosophyExp@giggs_boson I found it misleading in that, if in quality control for card games company, I would just discard "duds". 1/2 -
@lordpasternack@giggs_boson It might be misleading, but actually more people get my version right than Wason reported for his original... -
@PhilosophyExp@lordpasternack@giggs_boson Could that be because some re-run the test with correct answers to re-read the explanation? - 1 more reply
