A subfield that uses cognitive science—psychology, neuroscience, AI—to investigate the mental processes underlying logical reasoning and epistemic evaluation. It examines how people detect inconsistencies, update beliefs, assess evidence, and reason about counterfactuals. Cognitive logico‑epistemology is empirical: it runs experiments, builds computational models, and studies neurological impairments. It asks not what logic should be but what logic actually is as a cognitive capacity.
