Mental Processes Paper Introduction Mental models are the ways in which individuals process information in their minds. According to Mental Models and Reasoning (n.d.), Charles Sanders Pierce in 1896, stated: “Reasoning is a process in which human beings examine the state of affairs stated in the premises. He forms a diagram of the state of things, perceives relations in the parts of the diagram not explicitly mentioned in the premises, ascertains with mental experiments on the diagram that these relations would always exist, or at least they would exist in a certain proportion of cases and concludes the necessary or probable truth ”.
