Evidence supporting the hypothesis that people use mental animation in some scientific reasoning problems includes
a. using mental animation plays an important role in people's evaluation of static statements about diagrams of pulleys.
b. using mental animation plays an important role in people's evaluation of kinematic (motion-based) statements about diagrams of pulleys.
c. evaluation of statements about the end of the causal chain was faster for those who used mental animation than physical animation.
d. evaluation of statements about the end of the causal chain was faster than evaluation of statements about the beginning of a causal chain.
Question 2
