Stanovich proposes a three tier model http://keithstanovich.com/Site/Research_on_Reasoning_files/Stanovich_Two_MInds.pdf http://keithstanovich.com/Site/Research

  Modeling an analog system like human cognition into any number of discrete tiers is inherently kind of arbitrary and unscientific. I doubt you could ever prove experimentally that all human thinking works through exactly two or three or ten or whatever number of tiers. But it's at least possible that a three-tier model facilitates building AI software which is "good enough" for many practical use cases.

    Funny you should say that because an American guy did that a hundred years ago and nailed it. He divided reasoning into the two categories corollarial and theorematic.

      What is the experimental evidence to show that he nailed it?

        Do you want to try asking a question that isn't a category mistake?
