The Wason Selection Task

Question 2

You're still working as a quality control technician for a card games manufacturer (it's a good job!). But now you have to check a different rule:

If a card has the letter S on one side, then it has the number 3 on the other side.

You already know for certain that every card has a letter on one side and a number on the other side. Please indicate, taking this into account, which card or cards you definitely need to turn over, and only that or those cards, in order to determine whether the rule is broken in the case of each of the four cards below. (To indicate that it is necessary to turn over a card, simply "select" the card by clicking in the little box beneath it.)

Question 2 of 3

Really Deep Thought

What a country calls its vital economic interests are not the things which enable its citizens to live, but the things which enable it to make war. Gasoline is much more likely than wheat to be a cause of international conflict.
   --Simone Weil.
