Cosmides and Tooby tested participants' ability to solve variations of the Wason problem, including ones containing stories about a particular culture. Their results showed that <u>culture-specific knowledge</u> is not always necessary for conditional reasoning.
<u>Explanation:</u>
These tests conducted by Cosmides and Tooby contained the participant using their abilities and logical reasoning in order to solve various variations of the Wason Problem. While the problems had a cultural addition to them, where they may or may not contain stories about a particular culture.
This led to similar results though which showed Cosmides and Tooby that it was not necessary for the participants to have knowledge of the culture specifically to remember or know the stories. Thus, the more general approach and inductive processes were not culture specific and thus, needed no cultural knowledge as the process were distributed similarly throughout the cultures.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Hedonists such as Epicurus and Mill have claimed that pleasure is the only thing worth pursuing its own sake. If some people would choose not to plug into the experience machine, does this show that hedonism is false?
No, what it means is that under the belief system and consideration of that individual, hedonism is not the way to receive pleasure and there would other activities or satisfactions that would report pleasure in doing them. Diversity in people's character and beliefs makes life more rich and interesting in that the search for pleasure has different ways, according to the satisfactoriness, values, and goals of each individual.
Although Hedonists such as Epicurus and Mill have claimed that pleasure is the only thing worth pursuing its own sake, other thinkers and philosophers considered that pleasure is the final result of getting accomplished that what made us thrive under different -and sometimes- difficult circumstances.
So pleasure, fr the sake of the pleasure it is not the only way to approach this.
