    Counterfactual thinking and recency effects in causal judgment
    with Paul Henne, Aleksandra Kulesza, and Augustana Houcek
    Cognition 212 (C): 104708. 2021.

This recency effect, however, reverses in cases of overdetermination: people judge that earlier events, rather than more recent ones, caused the outcome when the event is individually sufficient but not individually necessary for the outcome. In five expe…Read more
