So cool!—will there be a U.K. book tour?

Looks super cool, thanks for turning on the conceptual inflation alarm!

I really enjoyed this paper!

Yeah! It's cool to see more substantial evidence that fits with our impressionistic findings about people responding to other factors besides narrow truth/falsity.

And here are some other "truthfulness"-like responses that people gave:

Here's a snippet of that kind of response from a chat:

When we asked people to explain their TVJs about Travis color scenarios, a fair number of people said things that suggest they are thinking about truthfulness. E.g.: some people say that the subject of the scenario doesn't know that his walls are made of white plaster, when that is not specified.

This paper is super cool, very glad to see it forthcoming! I got to chat with @ericman.bsky.social a bit about it over chicken rolls last week—I think some of the qualitative evidence in our "Socratic Questionnaires" paper fits with the paper's idea that the TVJ task is a measure of "truthfulness".

Congrats—really glad to see this is out!

Thank you Edouard! It was inspired by your guys' excellent paper.

In particular, I'm interested in his view that unlike the sciences, replication is not possible in the humanities. In my review, I give some reasons in favor of thinking it is possible. (I've screenshotted the relevant bits).
