291303 - Excellent article on strengths and weaknesses of human reasoning,
291304 - which is another word for "intelligence."  Time impacts quality of
291305 - information through limited memory.  It impacts reasoning process by
291306 - limiting the amount of mental resources applied to a given body of
291307 - information.  Limited time causes the mind to employ "default"
291308 - reasoning, commonly called "common sense," also called paradigms or
291309 - rules about the way the world usually works, based on experience.

291708 - Memory Driving Force of Human Reasoning
291709 - Time Degrades Human Memory, Assumptions Fill in Missing Information
291710 -
291711 - The paper explains that reasoning (similar to "analysis" see below,
291712 - ref SDS 0 6603) in the real world deals with imperfect information.
291713 - ref OF 8 0001  Memory of heuristic assumptions and defaults in the
291714 - reasoning process (called "paradigms") allow humans to make inferences
291715 - and reach conclusions based on imperfect information. ref OF 8 0002
291717 -  ..
291718 - As a result, memory of chronology that shows sequence of cause and
291719 - effect is a primary driving force of human intelligence that reasons
291720 - by selecting appropriate paradigms based on contextual experience.
291721 - Theory of knowledge that memory of experience can apply paradigms
291722 - according to contextual frames to expand limited information into
291723 - "reasonable" assumptions about the future, i.e., likely consequences,
291724 - aligns with research on 900303, ref SDS 4 5443, where Campbell
291725 - explains the mind uses "common sense" to understand information by
291726 - filling in gaps, ref SDS 4 6831, but pays a price in accuracy, because
291727 - human memory degrades over time, ref SDS 4 4456, unless there is
291728 - continual reinforcement provided by culture, or there is a way to
291729 - augment intelligence by capturing and organizing memory into an
291730 - effective knowledge resource. ref SDS 4 4456 and ref SDS 4 6689
