Abstract:
Novices and experts rated 18 phenomena as random or non-random and gave justifications for their decisions. Experts rated more of the situations as random than novices. Roughly 90% of the novice justifications were based on reasoning via a) equal likelihood, b) possibility, c) uncertainty, and d) causality.
