Children's understanding of linear-order (e.g., Dan is taller than Lisa, Lisa is taller
than Jess) and set-inclusion (i.e., All tulips are flowers, All flowers are plants)
relationships is critical for the acquisition of deductive reasoning, that is, the
ability to reach logically valid conclusions from given premises. Behavioral and
neuroimaging studies in adults suggest processing differences between these relations:
While arguments that involve linear-orders may be preferentially associated with spatial
processing, arguments that involve set-inclusions may be preferentially associated with
verbal processing. In this study, we use functional magnetic resonance imaging to
investigate how and when these processing differences appear in children from 8 to 14.
